During my time as a Professional Agrologist I was elected and held the volunteer position of the Articling Agrologist Coordinator. My duties included assisting prospective members of the British Columbia Institute of Agrologists in meeting articling requirements. Other duties included organizing opportunities for ethical or professional training, socializing, and connecting new members with mentors. I also ensured new members had a welcoming and inclusive experience. Encouraging new (and often young) members to successfully complete their articling process was very fulfilling.
