This Year's Theme |
|
With the theme of "Find Your Space", this
year's Future Focus Expo is a career
exploration event for 8th- through
12th-grade students and their parents,
helping them realize the abundance of
excellent career opportunities available
right here in Region 2000.
With dire predictions on the shortage of a
future workforce for our nation, we are
working right here, right now in Region 2000
to reach our next generation of workers.
Many partner organizations will be on hand
at the event as well to speak with students
about programs available to help them
prepare for their future.
The event is being held on Monday, October
15 at the Tolsma Indoor Track at Liberty
University from 4-9PM. As a bonus to this
event, area college students are being
invited to meet with exhibitors at a special
session from Noon until 3PM.
