As a way for organizations and employers to connect with students and potential employees, Red Deer Polytechnic is set to host its first Education and Career Expo:

Thursday, April 27

Red Deer Polytechnic’s Main Campus

Day session: 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM

Evening session: 5:00 AM to 8:00 PM

With funding from the Government of Canada, the Government of Alberta, and Careers, Red Deer Polytechnic is proud to collaborate with central Alberta exhibitors, employers, teachers, and community members to offer an educational and immersive experience for students and community members to explore a variety of programs and careers.

Grade 8 to 11 students can attend RDP during the day session to learn about the breadth of more than 80 industry-relevant programs offered at Red Deer Polytechnic. In addition, central Alberta exhibitors and employers will have the opportunity to engage with Polytechnic students and youth to increase their awareness about various careers through hands-on and interactive displays.

Employers will have further opportunities, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm, to connect with high school and post-secondary students, along with community members who are looking to enter the workforce or are seeking a career change. Red Deer Polytechnic will also host program presentations, guided tours, interactive activities, and free program applications for prospective students. The Polytechnic’s Academic Advisors will be available to answer questions. 

Exhibitor Applications are being accepted now through March 15. Exhibitors and attendees can learn more about Red Deer Polytechnic’s Education and Career Expo by visiting: rdpolytech.ca/expo.
