This free event is open to all and will bring together representatives from colleges, universities, technical/trade schools, businesses, government agencies, the trade industry, military, non-profits and more to share information about future options for our students.

The event also will feature workshops on topics including financial aid, how to prepare a winning resume, and how to prepare now for future success. There will also be panelists discussing a wide variety of career opportunities.

This event will be a one-stop shop where students can get started on their future.
