Agri-Preneur Scholarship

Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development (ARD) supports continuous learning and innovative educational opportunities for Alberta agri-preneuers. They will sponsor experience agri-preneuers to attend educational out-of-province, national and international conferences, tours or workshops.

This year the scholarship program supports leadership skill development and mentorship training of industry association administrators and board members to promote the growth and sustainability of our industry associations. A secondary program focus is on self directed learning tours and new entrants.

A maximum of two scholarships may be provided to new entrant applicants to attend appropriate provincial events.
