About RuralBiz
RuralBiz Training offers good quality, good value training for farmers and rural communities. We are part of the national training agenda with our own registered training organisation, Kreate Pty Ltd, offering nationally accredited training to Advanced Diploma level. Our current training scope includes all units of competency in Certificate IV, Diploma and Advanced Diplomas of both Agriculture and Rural Business Management.
Flexible delivery is our specialty with courses available in interactive online mode, distance education and traditional face-to-face workshops. You can train with us without leaving home, or you can get a small group together and we will come to you. Our trainers are well qualified and experienced, and live in our rural communities.
Please phone or email us if there is some training you would like for yourself or your community. We will work with you to make sure your needs are met – either with us or another suitable training provider.
