“The cotton industry is looking for growers to join the Australian Rural Leadership Program, starting in June 2025 and running for 15 months,” a Cotton Australia spokesperson said.
“If you’re leading teams on your farm or in your community and want to make a bigger impact in the industry, this is a great opportunity.
“Completing the program can open doors to leadership roles in grower associations, industry boards, Cotton Australia, and more.”
The 15-month program has scholarships worth more than $60,000 available.
It involves four face-to-face sessions between 5-10 days in length, online sessions and independent project work.
This program includes both international and remote domestic travel with isolation from day-to-day duties and limited to no contact.
Cohorts are announced in February.
