Career Fest

Career Fest, held each year in the fall, exposes Middle Georgia students to the numerous educational opportunities and career possibilities available to them after high school graduation. Various colleges, universities, technical institutes/college, businesses and branches of the military represent their organizations and programs at the fair where they talk to potential students and employees. Each organization sets up an exhibit emphasizing the unique fields of study or career opportunities they offer. “Parent’s Night” is held for parents to talk to recruiters and gather information on financial aid programs and admission requirements for educational institutions, the military and corporate sectors.

Eleventh and twelfth grade students in a twelve county area from public, private, and parochial schools are invited to attend. Last year more than 5,000 students and 175 exhibitors participated.
