Sajtos is grateful to have gone through EIA and considers herself a proud alumnus. The program “accelerated” her career, and she learned the power of networking. Her Pembina Co-op stint in 2019 was made possible through the connections she made as an intern. She encourages any young person curious about a career in agriculture to investigate the EIA. The no-pressure program simply gives a broader understanding ofthe ag industry and can set you up for success in the future. “Take every opportunity that comes to you because you don't know where it's going to lead,” Sajtos said. *Sometimes it can be scary to move away from home, and it was for me, but it was the best thing could do for myself. Get these experiences and see where Life takes you." Guiding the next generation Sajtos is excited to be part of the program now as a mentor. Last summer, she worked with a student and will do the same this year. “'m just s0 happy to continue to be part of the program and put time into these students, as there were some pretty awesome mentors who invested time intome throughout my program journey," she said. “I feel quite fortunate that now, | get to be a mentor to the new students." Overall, Sajtos sees programs like EIA as beneficial to all of agriculture, and vital to maintaining the culture of agriculture as populations dwindle in rural areas. “It's been a very positive thing for our whole industry of training young people and kind of fostering that growth and development for young people,” she said Kiana Sajtos, Senior Agronomist & Agro Manager in Training, Parkway Co-op Agro Centre EXCELLENCE IN AG PROGRAM “ 8 É Co-op's Excellence in Ag Program can help you achieve your personal career goals and objectives.
