How much does it cost?

Program costs are dependent on the size of the cohort. Our estimate of $17,600 is based on a cohort of 20 people using estimates taken in 2024/2025. As a result, there may be some variability in fees for a program that take place in the future. A place in the IALP program can either be funded by an agribusiness sponsoring an employee or a participant themselves. Participants may also need to cover some travel or incidental costs. More information on this is provided during the on-boarding process.

What happens if I become unwell or injured on the program?

Your safety is paramount, and we hope you will not get sick or injured. We do have first aid officers on all programs to assist in an emergency.

Will I be able to do my work while in the program?

Working while you’re in the program will significantly reduce your ability to focus and get the most out of it. It might also not be possible due to the location and schedule of the program. We, therefore, ask that you make prior arrangements with your workplace and inform them that you will not be able to work during the program period.

Will I be able to get in contact with family and loved ones?

We provide an immersive program experience. Therefore, mobile phones may be removed for periods to enhance your engagement and experience. Mobile phone reception may also not be available during some program periods. Your family will be provided with contact information to notify our facilitators in the event of an emergency.

How do I purchase a place or apply?

There are a few different ways to get a place in the program. Most places are purchased by agribusiness organisations for their employees. At the same time, employees are encouraged to complete an application for these places. Alternatively, you’re also welcome to self-fund your place.
