Testimonials

"I recently completed the Agri Skills Transfer Tractor Training Course, and I can confidently say that I am now ready to drive my future! This course significantly enhanced my farming skills and thoroughly prepared me for the H2A programme.

The training provided the perfect opportunity for young learners like me who aspire to learn and work abroad in the farming industry. I learned not only how to drive a tractor but also how to service it, ensuring that I am well-equipped for my own farming enterprise.

The hands-on training, which included daily shuttles to the practical farm, gave us invaluable on-the-ground experience. I now feel much more confident in my abilities and am excited to apply for opportunities in the USA.
I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to advance their skills in agriculture! Thank you, Agri Skills Transfer, for this amazing experience!"
