Oceana County College and Career Fair seeks participants and sponsors

Help engage juniors and seniors in high-quality career and college exploration opportunities

The 10th Annual Oceana County College and Career Fair will take place Thursday, Feb. 20, 2025 at Shelby High School. The event will engage all juniors from Oceana schools to ensure they have high-quality career and college exploration opportunities. The Oceana College Access Network is currently seeking sponsors and participants at this year’s event. Please see their website to register or visit forms.gle/TPPrq8qiZ2b1Ddaj8

Each year, businesses and colleges join together to help guide over 220 local high school students as they choose their next steps after high school. Local businesses and organizations are able to showcase their company and demonstrate pride in their profession and career options while connecting with the up-and-coming workforce. 

Colleges and training centers can present diverse options for post-secondary training, such as apprenticeships, certificates, skilled trades training and degree programs. Students are able to hear from local professionals about careers, educational pathways,and desired skills as they make decisions about their unique path after high school. All of this leads to a stronger and more prepared workforce and community and more confident, enthusiastic young people who know that their community supports their goals for a bright future.

Financial sponsorship of this event supports the Oceana College Access Network, and ultimately this area’s students and families, by building a career-ready and college-going culture within our community.  

To provide support for the work of Oceana CAN!, they are offering the opportunity for sponsors to join at three different levels: $250, $500, or $1000.
