Inter Linked-In
The primary objective of organizing a STEM and Business "speed-dating" career fair at Collingwood is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of potential career paths. By offering a platform for students to engage directly with professionals from various industries, the event aims to personalize career information, foster connections, and facilitate informed decision-making. The event will feature a "speed-dating" format where students rotate through brief sessions with professionals. Each session will last 3-5 minutes, followed by 15-minute breaks during which food will be provided for the professionals.
The event will be initially open to Collingwood students for free, with the possibility of opening to the public for a nominal $5 charge on a first-come, first-served basis. Our target audience will be for grades 11 and 12 students!
We hope that through this initiative, students will become more informed about different professions, helping them make more informed career choices. More information and signup opportunities will be posted on the CBO Instagram page closer to the date of the event.
