We're seeking another Education Specialist

Do you dream of creating classroom experiences that inspire young minds?

Are you an educator passionate about creating classroom experiences that inspire young minds to build a more vibrant, sustainable future? Agriculture in the Classroom-Manitoba (AITC-M) is seeking another Education Specialist to help take our high-quality agricultural literacy programs and resources to the next level.

Food connects us all. We believe integrating agricultural literacy into our schools enhances curriculum, plants the seeds for discovery, and creates opportunities for tomorrow’s innovators and decision-makers. We envision a future where every Manitoba high school graduate understands where their food comes from. As one of our Education Specialists, you will play a pivotal role in bringing our vision to life.

Imagine a unicorn standing in a farmer’s field. That’s our ideal candidate – a unique combination of course designer, curriculum specialist, relationship builder, passionate ambassador, social media maven, and strategic thinker, grounded by a solid understanding of what makes our ag and food industry so vital to Manitoba and the world.

About the Role
Reporting to our Executive Director and working in close collaboration with our amazing and dynamic team, you will:

Educate by identifying opportunities in the Manitoba curriculum to teach students about our province’s agriculture and food sector. Then you’ll develop interactive and cost-effective educational resources that align with Manitoba’s K-12 curriculum, current agricultural information, and student-centered learning methodologies.

Empower by acting as the bridge connecting the agri-world to eager educators (and their students). You’ll provide teachers with top-notch support materials, training and presentations to guide them in the effective use of AITC-M resources.

Engage by creating and nurturing relationships with stakeholders in education and agriculture. You’ll represent AITC-M in schools, workshops, and community events, amplifying the voice of agricultural literacy in Manitoba.

Evaluate the impact of our resources and support materials. You’ll use appropriate measurement and evaluation techniques and benchmarks to track our success today and deliver more impact tomorrow.
