Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program
The Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program (AALP) is an 18-month experiential executive leadership program for those who want to shape the future of the agriculture and food industry and make a positive difference in rural communities across Ontario.
Each Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program Class is created with attention to the diversity of participants. Participants are chosen so that peer-to-peer mentorship, interrelationships and a broad network are developed. Class participants are chosen for their different backgrounds, offering unique viewpoints and enabling thought-provoking, balanced discussion of critical issues.
The curriculum includes a series of seminars, study tours – North American and international – and small group issues analysis projects for agriculture, food and rural community clients.

Issues Analysis Project (IAP)
AALP Class participants add to their “toolbox of skills” by completing an Issues Analysis Project (IAP). The IAP is an action-based leadership project within the agriculture, agri-food and rural sectors in Ontario.
