We have three major educational opportunities:
Internship Program
The 12-month agricultural internship is designed to give service-oriented graduates practical work experience as they prepare for work with subsistence farmers or urban gardeners in developing countries. To learn more about the program, please visit the following link:
The Guided Self-Study Program
This program combines access to ECHO's broad range of resources related to tropical agriculture with a chance to do hands-on work on the Global Farm. Though we are not a formal training center, ECHO provides an environment that fosters learning.
The Study Program is designed to serve both active overseas development practitioners and residents of North America, often college students or recent graduates, who are interested in overseas service and who want an introduction to tropical agriculture.
