MARK YOUR CALENDARs for the 2010 event!

Virginia Western Community College is gearing up for the 3rd Annual Technology Summit and Career Exploration scheduled for Friday, October 15th!

Since the very first Technology Summit back in October 2007, Virginia Western Community College has provided opportunities for juniors and seniors from local high schools to learn more about careers in the field of applied and advanced technology through a Technology Summit and Career Exploration Fair.

In 2010, VWCC remains commited to providing an exciting event that supports helping students connect education and learning to opportunity. This year's Summit will include:

1. dynamic exhibits where students may explore a variety of employer’s who will showcase career opportunities in the applied and advanced technology sectors;
2. opportunities for high school students to interact with and engage current Virginia Western students and alumni;
3. interactive tours of the Advanced Technology Center for all participating schools to see first-hand the educational resources available at VWCC and to meet many of our knowledgeable faculty.

The goal of the Technology Summit and Career Exploration Fair is to continue developing a career pipeline by offering exciting and unique opportunities for students who want to pursue a technical career in the Roanoke Valley. VWCC faculty and staff are excited about this year’s event and hope that you will mark your calendars to participate in what will be an energized, information-packed affair.
