Giving Rural Girls a go

The ATC (Australian Training Company) is an organization that focuses on providing valuable work experience and training opportunities to young individuals, particularly in rural areas of Australia. The ATC collaborates with businesses across various industries, including agriculture, to offer on-the-job training programs for school-aged girls.

Through the ATC program, participants have the chance to gain practical skills, knowledge, and industry insights in a real work environment. They typically spend one day a week working alongside experienced professionals, learning about different aspects of the business and contributing to its operations. This hands-on experience helps them develop essential skills, build confidence, and explore potential career paths.

For Saarinen Organics, partnering with the ATC means that they provide opportunities for young rural girls to work in their lab or on their farm. By sharing their expertise and nurturing the talent of these participants, Saarinen Organics not only supports the personal and professional growth of these individuals but also contributes to the development of the local community and the industry as a whole.
