Agribusiness Talent Council

Agribusiness includes everything from growing crops and raising animals to processing food and making products you see in stores. In Michigan, it’s one of the top five industries and plays a big role in feeding our communities and supporting local jobs. From hands-on work outdoors to high-tech roles in labs and production facilities, there’s something for everyone. You might be surprised at how many different careers are part of agribusiness!

Description


MiCareerQuest offers West Michigan middle and high school students the opportunity to learn about careers in our region's high-demand industries through interactive experiences with local employers.

MiCareerQuest provides an opportunity for employers to showcase their industries and for educational institutions to highlight degree and certificate programs to West Michigan's future workforce. 

Employers within six industries - advanced manufacturing, agribusiness, construction, health sciences, hospitality, and information technology - work together to create hands-on exhibits that introduce students to the wealth of careers within their industry.

Typically schools register their classrooms for this event, however, there are opportunities for home-schooled students to register.
