The Rural Extension Centre(REC) was established in 1993 at the Gatton campus of the University of Queensland which is a small rural campus located between Brisbane and Toowoomba on the Darling Downs. It is funded by the Department of Primary Industries Queensland and the University of Queensland. The REC has specialized in extension training based on Kolb's learning cycle. Recently, an appointment was made in the area of rural community development. In this paper, an account is given of the setting up of rural community development at the REC.
