The AgriFood Training Partnership

AFTP由拥有科学资质的研究机构组成的精英合作伙伴关系，在全球舞台上提供英国农业和食品行业的技术技能和创新需求方面的培训。AFTP的主要作用是为农业食品部门雇用的高级技能人员提供经大学认证和认可的高水平培训，并传播英国研究的质量和技术进步。这一职权范围对BBSRC在其2015/16年度交付计划中概述的承诺做出了重大贡献，即支持世界级的生物科学培训，并提供必要的技能，以实现生物经济的持续创新，为英国国内和世界各地的社会创造效益。

The AFTP comprises an elite partnership of research institutions that have the scientific credentials to provide training in the technical skills and innovation needs of the UK agriculture and food industries on a global stage. The primary role of the AFTP is to deliver University-accredited and recognised high-level training that up-skills staff employed within the agrifood sector and disseminates the quality and technical advancements of UK research. This remit makes a major contribution to the commitment of BBSRC, as outlined in its 2015/16 delivery plan, to support world class training in the biosciences and provide the skills necessary for delivering continuing innovation in the bioeconomy to generate benefits for society within the UK and worldwide.
