MARINE & MARITIME CAREER FAIR
Hosted by NSHOF and EYC Foundation

For a second year the National Sailing Center & Hall of Fame and the Eastport Yacht Club Foundation have joined with Anne Arundel County Public Schools to create a unique career education experience for students in grades 7 - 12 by hosting a Marine & Maritime Career Fair on 25 February.  The Fair will be held at the Annapolis High School (2700 Riva Road) from 1300 to 1600. 

The goal of this industry-specific Career Fair is to demonstrate the diversity of careers that impact our oceans, bays, lakes, rivers and streams. The event is open to students in public and private schools, including homeschooled students, and registration is free. Representatives will be on hand not only from industry employers, but also from trade schools and colleges that offer industry-specific curriculum, such as Marine Architecture.

New features for the 2012 Career Fair include a Summer Internship and Employment Bulletin Board and dedicated Career web pages where Exhibitors can post internship and job openings.

Last year's event at Annapolis High School drew well over 500 students and parents, who interacted with 26 exhibitors, including businesses, schools and government agencies.

 

Contact NSHOF at 410-295-3022 or email Susan Nahmias at susan.nahmias@nshof.org for more information. Visitthe Career Fair page on the NSHOF website and register online today.
