Awards to celebrate best young leaders
Macra’s Leadership Training programme aims to provide opportunities for members to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes necessary for a leadership position in Macra and in other organisations. The awards scheme is designed to recognise the hard work and achievements of county officers working on a voluntary basis within Macra, with Gold, Silver or Bronze Awards being presented to officers who achieve preset targets and pass an interview.
A Gold Award is the highest level that can be secured by a Macra na Feirme county officer, and makes that person eligible to be considered for a National Leadership Award or to participate as a Macra representative on a number of overseas seminars including the European Rally for rural young people.
