“Trades are going to be represented, HVAC. I’m really excited about this, a lot of IT companies and cyber security. The medical field is going to be represented, customer service, administrative-related type jobs. All aspects of construction are going to be included. This is very exciting, a heavy equipment operation that’s going to be there, and staffing agencies are going to be there and probably more than that,” said Jeff Bennett, CVCC Career Services Navigator.

It’s open to students and anyone in the community.

“March yourself right over to our admissions department and make an appointment with one of the advisors and say, ‘Look, I‘m just exploring my career. What are my options? Does CVCC have anything that they could offer me?’” said Jeff Bennett, CVCC Career Services Navigator.
