Did you know that 1 in 8 jobs in the Canadian workforce are in agriculture and food? In Manitoba, it’s 1 in 4! From engineering, research and processing to sales, finance and everything in between! As the world population continues to grow, the demand for skilled people to work in agriculture will grow as well. The thinkAG initiative from Agriculture in the Clasroom Canada helps students learn about the diverse and exciting career opportunities in the agriculture and food industry. Thinking outside of the box, thinkAG brings students into a world of agriculture education that inspires curiosity in the many career opportunities throughout our food system. By inspiring students to thinkAG and picture themselves working in agriculture and food, we’re helping to close the industry's labour gap. Not only that - we're building the next generation of informed consumers, influential thought leaders, and skilled Canadians. thinkAG is dedicated to those in their pre-teen to teenage years — but no matter who you are — there's something for you here! Whether you're a student, teacher, parent, or partner in progress, we encourage you to explore our resources to discover the diverse world of agriculture and food careers. It's never too early or too late to consider a career in this ever-growing industry
