Training and Travel Awards
The GRDC has recently undertaken a review of all initiatives offered under the Communication and Capacity Building program. The review looked at areas of improvement for existing awards, new opportunities that could be utilised and consistency with the GRDC Capacity Building Strategy. As a result, over the next six months, the GRDC will be implementing recommendations from the review ranging from amendment to award criteria, modified application forms and reporting requirements, electronic submission of application forms and additional opportunities for students with an interest in agriculture. Further details on these changes are included under each award.
The GRDC welcomes feedback to improve the application forms and processes for all Travel and Training Awards listed.
If you require any further information or would like to provide any comments please contact the individual listed under each award or alternatively Coordinator Internal Business Processes, Noelia Grech on (02) 6166 4500 or email.
