University College Isle of Man has launched a trial of new agriculture courses to support the local farming industry.
Developed alongside the Manx National Farmers Union, the five courses cover subjects such as tractor operations, safe transport of animals and computers for farmers.
They're accredited by City & Guilds and include either a form of assessment or exam.
UCM will be working with the union to develop further courses to be announced in the future.
