The festival will feature a number of exhibitors offering jobs, education and training designed to present new career opportunities. Confirmed exhibitors include La Capitale Financial Security, Royal Roads University and the Visual College of Art and Design, with more guests announced in the lead-up to the event.
Exhibitors are provided with booth space and tables to help reach attendees. Exhibitors at career fairs often use tools such as brochure printing and recorded video to explain educational and training opportunities.
Promotional material emphasizes the training side of the expo:
“Build meaningful rapports you need to advance your career in the direction that you want. Learn about exciting new career options and obtain valuable information about how to earn the credentials and diplomas you need to get the job you want with our Training Exhibitors.”
The expo is a product of Career Fair Canada, which holds similar events across the country. These events typically attract new graduates and jobseekers, as well as people looking to change careers, with formal dress and business card printing common preparation.
The 2022 Vancouver Career Fair and Training Expo is set to take place on March 8 at the Anvil Centre in New Westminster.
