Online training

Short Introduction to Online Training

The distance learning programme for guidance service providers in the field of multifunctional agriculture is designed in the style of self-paced learning. The participants do not have a fixed timetable and are free to choose the time, pace, method, and scope of their learning. This type of learning is less stressful for participants but requires more discipline and motivation.

For self-paced learning, the AgriNext website provides a short guide, interactive content covering the four modules, interactive tasks in the H5P web tool relevant to each module, a self-assessment test and a link to the course curriculum.
