Cedar Lane students are invited to a Career/Training Program Fair. The event is scheduled for Tuesday, February 6th, 2024, with a snow date of Tuesday, February 13th, 2024. The fair will run from 10:15 AM to 11:30 AM. This time frame allows students ample opportunity to explore the diverse array of opportunities available. All students of any grade are invited, although if space becomes limited we will give preference to juniors and seniors. Any students who are interested should get a field trip form from Mrs. Williams, School Counselor, or Ms. Veltri, Employment Transition Representative, for parent signature. The form should be returned by this Thursday, 2/1.
These are all career options for students who are seeking skilled employment opportunities but who may not be inclined towards pursuing a traditional college degree. This fair will be a valuable resource for students looking to explore alternative pathways to success. Most of the training programs below are low- or no cost to students, through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). Students can learn more about WIOA at this career fair as well.
