Young people considering what skills they will need for tomorrow’s workforce will have an opportunity for an interactive, hands-on experience.
The WorkBC’s Find Your Fit tour stops at Vernon Secondary School Thursday.
“What an opportunity this is for young people in the Vernon area to learn about potential career options,” said Eric Foster, Vernon-Monashee MLA.
“This hands-on event gives students a chance to see which in-demand jobs might be the perfect fit.”
Find Your Fit is an interactive event where individuals of all ages
can find out about careers in demand throughout the province, learn about online resources to help them find work and even try some of the skills they will need for different careers.
Find Your Fit connects participants with labour-market information resources including WorkBC.ca’s online tool, Blueprint Builder, that helps users map their career plan.
Parents, teachers and career counsellors may also benefit from the event as they look for ways to educate and support youth in their career exploration.
The Find Your Fit booth will be open to the public from 3:15 to 7 p.m. at no cost.
