The FBAA is proud to announce the selection of three mentees to participate in the inaugural FBAA Mentorship Program commencing June 1st 2024. The foundation of the two-month program is to provide aspiring bloodstock agents with a formal pathway towards professional development in the bloodstock industry, whilst fostering education and encouraging best practice.
The FBAA has been impressed by the industry support communicated at the recent sales and looks forward to curating a curriculum that combines both practical and theoretical learning opportunities shadowing FBAA members at both the Magic Millions National Yearling Sale and Inglis Great Southern Sale.
