• Expanded ‘Construction Fair’ hands on activities, including an indoor section where students will be able to use indoor machinery without being exposed to the weather.

• Computers will be available for students to apply for open positions online after meeting with employers.
• Attending businesses will be given the opportunity to host student internships through Partners in Careers. Businesses who elect to participate will write down the names of students that they are interested in hosting as interns and their high schools, so that we may follow up appropriately. Students who qualify for the internship will then be enrolled in Career Connect Washington, and placed into their internships.
