The Career Exploration Fair provides an avenue for eighth graders preparing to enter local high schools to explore a breadth of career areas and make an informed decision when choosing their courses. This fair helps raise awareness and excitement that shows in-coming freshmen the relevance of their studies and the opportunities their futures holds. As opposed to a job fair where students visit companies, the career fair allows companies to work together to present career options for students to explore. The main focus of our exhibits, therefore, is to showcase a broad spectrum of possible careers.

After spending a day on our campus, we hope students attending the event are better equipped to answer these questions:

• What are my goals?
• What are my career aspirations?
• What steps do I need to begin now to reach my goals?
