Skills and training

Young Farmers' Clubs were first created with a focus on agricultural education, and training and personal development still remain at the heart of every aspect of YFC life today.
From the specific learning outcomes of each of the competitions organised every year, to the valuable experience gained by taking on responsibility for running the organisation at club, county and national levels, YFC involvement offers members a chance to learn skills that will remain with them for life, help them reach their potential or even become the foundations of a future career.

International recognition for courses
The Institute of Training and Occupational Learning (ITOL) is the professional body for people specialising in training, development and occupational learning.
Its accreditation of NFYFC’s Train the Trainer, Advanced Train the Trainer and Leadership Development courses ensures that training offered will not only be beneficial within YFC, but is also highly regarded by employers, colleges and universities.
