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.

Meet Willy: California Farm Bureau’s 2025 Farm Dog of the Year!

We’re excited to introduce Willy, a miniature long-haired dachshund with a big heart and even bigger courage, and the Grand Prize winner of this year’s Farm Dog of the Year Contest!

Willy may be small, but he’s become an indispensable partner on owner Marshal Hagedorn’s forestry and cattle operations in Shasta, Tehama, and Siskiyou counties. Adopted in 2023, he quickly found his place on the ranch, helping manage critters, tagging along for long days in the woods, and offering unwavering companionship during demanding logging work.

Willy has even taken naturally to moving cattle, surprising calves (and more than a few full-grown cows!) with his burst of energy from the tall grass. As Marshal put it: “He goes with me everywhere every single day.”

Congratulations to Willy and his family, a perfect example of how every good farm dog, no matter the size, helps keep California agriculture running strong.
