Agriculture Career Profiles

Philip Reid - HNC in Agriculture

"Part-time study gave the best of both worlds being able to further my education as well as working on the home farm.  I found the course really challenging and could relate the subjects taught, such as Animal Production, IT and Farm Management back to my home farm situation.  It also gave me the opportunity to meet new people and I would strongly recommend the course to anyone interested in part-time study".

Having completed the ND at Greenmount Campus, Paddy joined the Almarai company and now manages the Al Rabiah dairy which currently holds 3600 cows and 4400 heifers.  This is a young, vibrant and continually expanding company and there are opportunities for adequately qualified and trained personnel to join and progress through the management structures.

So, if there are any highly motivated young farmers who want the opportunity to join a world leading team of professionals, the first step on the career ladder is to obtain a Diploma or Certificate in Agriculture via Greenmount.
