Telford: A Division of Lincoln University
Telford has a long and proud history of training New Zealand farmers. Our campus extends over 800 hectares of farmland with halls of residence and facilities, technical workshops (machinery, carpentry and welding), classrooms and livestock units. Students will gain real-life, practical training under the supervision of experienced tutors, farm managers, equine tutors, forestry trainers and/or local apiarists.
Students also have regular work experience on external farms, in their area of study, as part of Telford's qualifications.
Telford Farms are run as a commercial entity. The farms provide a commercially realistic ‘classroom’ to develop farming skills. Each week Telford Farm Managers have up to five students undertaking work experience.
