Training frameworks for targeted advisors training

Training frameworks for targeted advisors training

The main objective of the training modules is to facilitate the use of digital tools by farmers and advisors and to ease their transition to digital agriculture. The development of the training framework was based on the advisors needs and was built on the existing training modules on the FAIRshare platform.
Training frameworks are series of general type and DATS specific training modules adapted to the agricultural advisors' needs. The aim is to adopt the use of digital tools in the chosen category, considering their current level of digital skills.
There are three broad categories that encompass the needs of advisors that was applied for the development of training frameworks:
• Communication,
• Calculation and Data,
• Decision Support Systems (DSS).
In addition, as the scale of users' digital skills is very wide and variable, two different levels of advancement in digital tools have been distinguished: basic and advanced users of digital tools.
Although the training frameworks are largely tailored to French-speaking advisors, they serve as an example for other countries to find equivalent trainings.
