Answer
Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
In addition to the support available from Farming Connect, the Welsh Government provides mainstream education funding for learners who want to pursue careers in agriculture, horticulture, and animal care in Wales. Separately, the Apprenticeship Programme provides work-based learning opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds, leading to nationally recognised qualifications and skills.
