In today's rapidly evolving agricultural landscape, technology adoption has become essential for farmers and growers seeking to improve efficiency, productivity, and profitability.

Yet many face barriers to understanding which technologies suit their specific needs, how to implement them effectively, and whether they'll deliver a genuine return on investment. This is where TIAH's Essential Skill in Agri-Tech empowers farmers to navigate the digital transformation journey with confidence and practical know-how.

TIAH has developed a comprehensive online learning path designed in partnership with the UK Agri-Tech Centre, a collaboration that brings together industry expertise and real-world farming knowledge in a structured six-module course which breaks down agri-tech adoption into manageable, practical steps from small-scale growers to larger enterprises managing complex systems.

Each module addresses a critical stage of the Agri-tech journey: understanding available technologies and their potential applications, evaluating how they enhance efficiency and productivity, selecting solutions tailored to your business, successfully integrating new digital tools, managing common adoption challenges, and calculating the return on investment. Bite-sized modules (taking just 15 minutes each to complete) fit seamlessly around your busy farming schedules, meaning you can progress at your own pace.

The course includes practical case studies, templates, and tools grounded in farming contexts, helping learners make informed decisions by gaining confidence to overcome adoption barriers whether cost, training gaps, or risk aversion, enabling farmers to unlock the potential to streamline operations, reduce costs, and improve product quality.

TIAH membership provides essential ongoing support with members receiving Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points and certificates upon completion, building verifiable credentials for audits, grant applications, and career development. Access to TIAH's extensive Learning Hub ensures farmers can continuously refresh and develop skills, supported by personalised recommendations based on individual assessments.
