Members' PageRecruits Wanted SoonWe rely very much on our ex Scholars and "Friends" to put the word around about JET and our unique free Management Development Courses. Entries for the 2010/11 Course close on May 28th, so please contact people who you know would benefit from the JET Experience and persuade them to apply. Invite them to the JET day in May.........Be persistent! Application Forms and details will be sent out with the spring Newsletter, but all the information is available now on the Award Scheme page including the topics covered, an information leaflet and an application form. We would much prefer the digital form to be used. Reunion in May 2010For our last reunion in 2008, some 45 people enjoyed an outstanding day at Barfoot of Botley's farm near Fareham. on May 8th. Plans are in hand to hold another reunion early in May. Watch this space for details! Alumni Dinners 2011It has now become almost a tradition to invite ex JET Scholars to a dinner evening during the Course. The January and March sessions will once again be held at the Grosvenor at Stockbridge.
The speakers are not yet fixed, but you can be assured of a stimulating evening in congenial company. As always, we will be inviting individual course-years on one or the other of these evenings and we will be contacting representatives from each group nearer the time. An AppealThe funding gap grows ever wider between the cost of our unique JET courses and the Trust's income, but so far we have managed to put on courses at no cost to the new Award Holders. We would like to maintain this tradition, but to do so we do need more funds. Quite a number of JET Alumni have already responded and are making regular donations. Katherine Parker has nobly taken on the task of contacting other previous JET scholars to ask them to make a contribution by way of a gift aid covenant.
A
modest individual contribution from everyone whose career
has been enhanced by the JET experience would enable the Trust to
continue to foster future rural leaders. If you can help in any way, please contact either Katherine or Christopher Langford. We need your email address
