Advance Your Knowledge & Expand Your Network

Dedicate two immersive days to advancing your knowledge and expanding your network in the agricultural and food industry. Join us for the AgCareers.com Roundtable, offering distinctive industry-specific professional development. We’re bringing together industry and education stakeholders to address challenges and exchange ideas for success in talent acquisition, management, and retention.  

This year marks the 22nd annual conference focused on developing the talent pipeline. AgCareers.com will host the 2024 conference at the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis on July 24th & 25th. Agriculture and food industry employers, college career services staff, and association representatives collaborated with AgCareers.com in developing the Roundtable agenda topics. 

Some of the featured keynote sessions presented by experts: 

• Navigating Talent Needs & Trends in the Industry 

• Let’s Get Real: What Students Want 

• Building an Inclusive Culture for All 

• Cultivating the Future Pipeline 

• Leadership Through Performance Management 

• The Curiosity Factor: Continual Professional Development 

• Develop a Thriving Workforce: Immigration & Employment Law Strategies 

Roundtable participants can tailor their learning experience by choosing from a range of daily breakout sessions that align with their role and organization. Conference participants have the opportunity to earn continuing education credits.  

We invite attendees to kick off the event early on July 23 with several optional events. The new Compensation Summit will deep-dive into compensation-related topics for a focused educational afternoon session. Alternatively, attendees may register to tour the University of Minnesota-St. Paul Agricultural Experiment Station. This exclusive tour with transportation has limited spots available, so we encourage people to register early. Tour attendees will discover what a research farm looks like in the middle of a metropolitan area with nearly four million people.  

“We’re thrilled to welcome attendees to campus to learn more about how we train the next generation of agricultural experts,” said Joleen Hadrich, Associate Dean for the Minnesota Agricultural Experience Stations and CFANS Research & Outreach Centers. “Tour participants will learn more about how phenotyping identifies diseases before they can be visually detected, how we take Kernza from the field to the brewery or grocery shelf, explore display gardens, and finish with ice cream from the University Dairy Salesroom,” added Hadrich.
