The value of exploring those options in person, with people who can answer your questions and provide the information you need to make decisions that matter, is huge.
“There’s no better way to network with such a wide array of businesses and educational institutions – all in one location,” says Ranee Pal, Black Press Media events manager. “Whether it’s pursuing a new career path, taking the next step on the path you already love, or getting the education you need to make it happen, you’ll find the resources you need at the Greater Victoria Career and Post-Secondary Education Event!”
