A large part of what TIAH will provide will be an online space where users have access to individual profiles, logging both formal and informal training and qualifications.
TIAH will make it easy for both employers and employees to look for suitable training options in order to develop skills, careers and businesses. It will provide access to information on the roles available in farming, progression options and skills required, to those new to the farming industries, or exploring its potential.
TIAH will act as a co-ordinating force, ensuring that up to date knowledge of policy and regulations, as well as new and innovative farming and growing practises are disseminated throughout the industry.
TIAH will also provide access to HR and personnel development support to small and medium sized businesses across the industry, as well as collate reliable data on the labour market, workforce requirements and skills shortages.
The NFU has been involved with the development of TIAH since the beginning, with Policy Board recently agreeing continued support.
The NFU is represented on the TIAH board by NFU Deputy President Tom Bradshaw in his capacity as the NFU’s officeholder for skills and NFU member Owen Piper.
