Career Fair

Discover the Possibilities

 

Each fall and spring, the Academy hosts a Career Fair on campus. With an average of 125 organizations in attendance, it is an excellent opportunity for students to discover career paths and opportunities, to learn about employers that hire our students and graduates, and to become educated about the many different industries in which our alumni work. We encourage all students of all years to participate. We thank employers for their ongoing support and partnerships of our students.

The event is an excellent opportunity that allows employers an avenue to learn about our academic programs and to discover the skills and talents of our student body. Employers often stay a second day to interview students for co-op, commercial shipping and full-time openings. The fair is a perfect forum for employers and students to meet!
