Northern Rural Partnership

Northern Rural Training is an independent and private company set up to assist the voluntary training co-operative of the employer led Association of Rural Training Groups. As such, we are not dependent on government funding or the whims of political thinking on education and training. (We do however, work with a number of agencies and organisations and draw down funding from a number of sources to support our clients.)
We are able to offer a broad spectrum of courses and an effective result is achieved by our flexible approach to training venues and a combination of delivery methods, which are unlikely to be found through traditional routes.

Association of Rural Training Groups

The Association is a formal grouping of a number of employer led rural training groups originally set up in the early 1980’s through the Agricultural Training Board (ATB).

Springboard

The rural women’s group operates in a similar way and was built up following a number of structured programmes of training events run for twelve farm women in 1993.

Transnational Group

Looks to other areas in the world that have a similar geographical status, enterprises, or have rural diversity that we can study and exchange views to the benefit of all concerned.
