The Holstein Foundation is accepting applications for its 10th class of Young
Dairy Leaders Institute. The program will have on-site meetings in Phoenix,
Arizona in February 2017 and 2018.
YDLI is a unique, three-phase dairy leadership program for young adults, ages
22 to 45, who are involved in the industry as active dairy producers or members
of allied industry. Utilizing interactive workshops and a hands-on learning
approach, along with individual projects, YDLI takes place in three phases over
a 12-month period.
YDLI has over 500 alumni that can attest to its merit.
"I've been very lucky in my life to be able to attend quite a few
workshops and conferences aimed at personal growth, but YDLI was far and away
the best experience I've had," said Michael Goeldi, a former participant
from Wisconsin. "If I had to use one word to describe YDLI it would be
transformative."
