Why should I participate in Career Expo ’08? By meeting Corridor companies face-to-face in both formal and informal settings, CCDs are equipped with the knowledge to educate their graduates on all the high tech job opportunities that the Corridor has to offer. |
When and where will Career Expo ’08 take place? Career Expo '08 will take place Thursday, Feb. 28 and Friday, Feb. 29, at the Tampa Convention Center, and the complimentary host hotel is the Embassy Suites Tampa - Downtown Convention Center. |
Why does FHTCC host the annual Career Expo? As one of the nation's emerging high tech hubs, the Florida High Tech Corridor's need for highly educated, highly skilled technology employees is growing. The participating Corridor companies want to educate career center directors about the Corridor because in the event that a student is looking to leave the state upon graduation, the directors can accurately describe the career opportunities available in the Corridor. |
