Farmer non-technical skills training session

Dr Amy Irwin

Interested in the FIRST farmer non-technical skills training program? Join us for a FREE taster session and the chance to ask questions!

This free webinar offers the opportunity to learn more about the very first farmer non-technical skill training program. Non-technical skills encompass the thinking (situation awareness, decision-making) and interaction (teamwork, leadership, communication) skills that, alongside technical know-how, are vital for safety at work. These skills have been examined in many high risk industries, including aviation where training in these skills is mandatory. The research team at the University of Aberdeen, led by Dr Amy Irwin, has conducted more than 6 years of research to examine these skills in faming, resulting in a farmer-specific list of skills (FLINTS) necessary for safe farming practice.This session will briefly discuss the farm safety and non-technical skills research, including the development of the FLINTS behavioural marker system . This will be followed by a taster of the new training program, produced a via a collaboration between the University of Aberdeen and Kura Human Factors. Kura has years of experience delivering similar training within aviation, and have now turned their focus to agriculture. The training taster will be delivered by trainers from Kura Human Factors. There will be time to ask questions at the end of the session.All welcome!
