2015 Paddock to Plate National Training Conference
![](http://www.mintrac.net.au/newsletter/20150506/Images/page1.jpg)
The Paddock to Plate Training Conference is all over, and feedback from the attendees has been strongly supportive of our new partnership model with Rural Skills Australia. Attendees said they liked the broader range of topics, hearing from new industry sectors, hearing the market analysis from MLA, and the opportunity to hear such a wide range of presentations.
Presentations are now available on the MINTRAC website – go to the News and Events section.
No conference would be successful without its sponsors, and we are grateful for the sponsorship support of so many groups this year. In particular thanks to our Gold Sponsor, AMPC, our silver sponsors, Kentmaster and Response Learning, and our many exhibitors.
The Conference dinner saw the presentation of the AMPC Meat Industry Training Awards. The winners are listed elsewhere in this newsletter - sincere congratulations to our very worthy winners.
There was also a Diploma in Meat Processing graduation ceremony at the conference dinner. Congratulations to all those who have completed an intensive course of study over the past couple of years. There is an impressive line-up of graduates for the past two years – see the list elsewhere in this newsletter.
We will continue the Paddock-to-Plate theme next year and planning work has already begun behind the scenes. We will also address the many suggestions we received in the delegates’ feedback.
Finally, a sincere thanks to Rural Skills Australia who took a risk and entered into a partnership arrangement this year. We look forward to collaborating in the future.
