FEEDLOT TECH
Feedlot TECH aims to support and create a dynamic, engaged and skilled workforce, ensuring the continued success of the Australian lot feeding industry
About Feedlot TECH
Launched in 2021, Feedlot TECH is an initiative of Australian Lot Feeders’ Association (ALFA), in collaboration with Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA) as part of the Australian Feedlot Sector Career Development and Training Strategy (2016).
The feedlot-specific training platform offers a central collection of training, education and career pathway information within the Australian lot feeding sector. Access to the platform and a select collection of Feedlot Fundamental training courses are complimentary, however to access the full collection of Feedlot Fundamental training courses and monthly online training sessions for you and your staff, an active annual subscription is required.
Subscriptions
For close to a decade ALFA, in partnership with MLA, has been steely focused on providing the Australian cattle feedlot sector, its businesses and current and prospective employees with clear career development pathways. Attracting, retaining and growing the capacity of the feedlot workforce by providing training, professional development and support networks has enabled our sector to thrive.
One of the biggest and most valuable outputs to come from the Feedlot Career Development and Training (FCDT) Strategy (2019) is the development of the online Feedlot Careers, Education and Training Hub (Feedlot TECH), and the feedlot-specific eLearning courses, tools and resources that it provides access to.
With a full suite of Feedlot Fundamental courses now available on the platform and with plans to expand the catalogue, Feedlot TECH is evolving to a commercial model as at January 31, 2025. Only a limited selection of courses will remain free of charge post this date.
Access to the full suite of Feedlot Fundamental courses will be via an annual subscription or single purchase. A subscription provides a business and their nominated staff access to all Feedlot Fundamental Courses, providing cost effective access for staff training.
All subscriptions will be renewed on July 1 each year, as part of the ALFA Membership renewal process. Any users remaining on the platform without a subscription post January 31, 2025 will regrettably cease to have access.
We are currently offering 50% off all subscriptions until June 30, 2025. Take advantage now!
