Federation University
Certificate II in Agriculture
Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET)You will learn in our specialised Rural Sciences Skills Centre, which is full of modern equipment and facilities just as you would expect to find at an innovative agricultural enterprise, as you discover how to apply chemicals, care for livestock, operate quad bikes and more.
Then, once you finish your six month program, you can go on to work in a variety of practical and often physical jobs, whether that is with animals, crops or mixed farming.
The Australian Government is predicting a shortage of agriculture experts over the next five years, meaning that your skills are sure to be in demand.
