UW business class in Yakima prepares future agricultural leaders locally

Washington's fruit industry teamed up with the UW to develop a six-week business course to identify and educate future local business leaders.

The UW Foster School certification program that started more than two decades ago targets mid-level managers in the agricultural industry and more than 150 companies throughout the Yakima Valley.

To date, nearly 800 students from Benton, Franklin, Walla Walla and Yakima counties have completed the certificate.
