Class 40
The Washington Agriculture and Education Foundation (AgForestry) is recognized as the premier leadership development program in Washington State. AgForestry cultivates leaders in agriculture, forestry, fishing and related industries who communicate, collaborate, inspire and serve.
The program addresses issues that impact natural resources and our society at large. It presents hands-on learning experiences that allow participants to achieve an advanced level of leadership. Over 18 months, 11 leadership seminars are presented throughout Washington on topics including: communications; group dynamics; public speaking; working with media; influencing public policy and working with the state government; and key policy issues impacting forestry, agriculture, the Columbia River System, social services, the criminal justice system, and transportation. The program also features one week in Washington D.C. learning about the federal government and a two-week seminar on international trade, culture and government in a selected foreign country. Through our leadership seminars we enhance leadership skills, present multiple perspectives on issues, and explore the economic, environmental and human impacts of public policy decisions.
