Farm Training for Veterans Gets New IFT Rules
Washington reports Congress clarified institutional farm training IFT under GI Bill. The law requires supervised teaching on farms, at least 200 hours of classroom work yearly, plus 50 hours on farm and 150 hours of individual instruction, with home study and budgeting. It also sets revenue ceilings and farm size criteria, and endows General Bradley with approval power. IFT differs from straight on the job training, lasting up to four years instead of two.
