AALP Proves Valuable, New Study Suggests

Ontario’s Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program (AALP) delivers an average 25 percent social investment, according to a study released by the George Morris Centre.

The study entitled “Social and Economic Return on Investment of the Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program” found - networking, strategic thinking and enhanced ways to improve competitiveness were some of the top benefits of AALP.

The study interviewed graduates of the winter of 2012/2013 program. The measure for return on investment was done by examining the employment and volunteer activities of graduates.

“Attaching a value to leadership training is a tremendous way to demonstrate value to past participants, organizations, sponsors and future participants. Class 15 is gearing up, and we are able to confirm the ongoing value of this 30-year program,” said Rob Black, chief executive officer of the Rural Ontario Institute.

The full report on the study can be read on the Rural Ontario Institute website at: www.ruralontarioinstitute.ca.
