The AIC Future Forum will be exhibiting at the National Apprenticeship and Education Event – Skills Scotland on Thursday 3 September 2026 at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh, helping young people explore the wide range of careers available across the agricultural supply industry.

The event brings together school and college students aged 15+, parents, educators, employers, universities and training providers to showcase future education and career pathways. Thousands of visitors attend to learn more about apprenticeships, further education opportunities and routes into employment.

Representatives from the AIC Future Forum will be on hand throughout the day to challenge common misconceptions about careers in agriculture and highlight the diverse opportunities available across the agri-supply chain.

Established in 2020, the AIC Future Forum is a group of younger members working within the agri-supply trade. The Forum promotes careers across the industry, supports the next generation of talent and helps raise awareness that farming and agriculture are about much more than “mud and tractors”.

Visitors to the AIC stand will be able to:

  • Learn about apprenticeships, T Levels and graduate opportunities within the agricultural supply industry.

  • Discover the wide range of career paths available across the UK food supply chain.

  • Speak directly to industry professionals about their experiences and career journeys.

  • Pick up careers resources and find out how to get involved with the sector.
