Canadian classroom kit promotes ag careers

AgCareers.com has launched the second edition of its Canadian Classroom Implementation Kit, designed to help students explore and prepare for careers in agriculture and food industries. This kit provides educators, teachers, and advisors with free, ready-to-use resources to inspire young minds about the vast opportunities available in the sector.

The Classroom Kit complements the AgCareers.com Canadian Food & Agriculture Career Guide and includes updated lesson plans, worksheets, links, and optional extended learning opportunities. Designed for grades 9 and 10, it can be adapted for other levels as needed.

The activities focus on helping students:

  • Discover tools to prepare for their career paths.
  • Understand the value of internships, mentorships, and co-op programs.
  • Research a wide range of agriculture-related career opportunities.

Educators can instantly access the materials through free downloads. These resources ensure students are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed for future success.

The Food & Agriculture Career Guide, available online, further engages students with interactive content while connecting them to leading employers in agriculture offering internships and entry-level jobs.

Explore this valuable tool today to help students build a strong foundation for their future in agriculture.
