NextGen Ag Trainers:

Supporting current and aspiring TAE trainers in accelerating AgTech skill development

Coming in 2027

This project will address a critical gap in Queensland's agricultural VET workforce, the lack of digital literacy and AgTech capability among trainers. New industry co-designed micro-credentials will help to upskill both existing and prospective TAE trainers, ensuring agricultural VET delivery keeps pace with a rapidly innovating industry and produces job-ready, digitally capable graduates. The project also aims to strengthen the attractiveness of TAE training pathways for experienced agricultural industry professionals by positioning training as a pathway that enhances professional standing in a modern, digitally enabled industry.
