Highly Qualified Personnel Scholarship Program

The Alliance and Food from Thought [1] fund the Highly Qualified Personnel (HQP) program to support the development of highly skilled graduates who can meet the changing demands of the agri-food and rural sector. The health of these sectors depends on a vibrant talent pool of skilled, forward-thinking learners. 

HQP Scholarships: Skilled people make the agricultural sector successful

Masters and PhD students complete research that meets OMAFRA’s research priorities and learn firsthand how forward-thinking research can be mobilized to have a positive impact on society.

The program has provided specialized agri-business and workplace experience for over 157 graduates to-date. See:
