Montreal - Thursday, September 29, 2022

More than 2,000  Secondary V students will attend the 22nd  annual SMÀ¦°ó Career Fair on Wednesday, October 19 and Thursday,  October 20 at St. Pius X Career Centre in Ahuntsic (9955 Papineau).  Jack Dym of Pipe and Piling Supplies Ltd is the event’s title sponsor.  

Several on-air personalities from the media will be on hand to talk to students about careers in this field and serve as guest emcees.

This will mark the first in-person Education and Career Fair since 2019. The previous two editions were presented virtually.

From 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on October 19, the Education and Career Fair will be open to the community-at-large. Organizers note that this is a good opportunity for parents to attend with their children (Grades 9, 10 and 11) as they look towards post-secondary education options in a one-stop shopping experience. There is no charge and free parking.

Mario Argiropoulos from SMÀ¦°ó Adult Education and Vocational Services is the  Education and Career Fair chair. The Student Services and AEVS Departments of the SMÀ¦°ó coordinate this program.   The main objective is to provide students with an in-depth exposure to the various educational opportunities available to them.  All students will take part in a brief general information session in the St. Pius X Career Centre auditorium. Students will then have the chance to visit the various exhibition/information booths staffed by representatives from English vocational training centres, adult education centres,  CEGEPS, universities and private colleges.

SMÀ¦°ó the SMÀ¦°ó

With a youth and adult sector population of more than 35,000 students, the SMÀ¦°ó (SMÀ¦°ó) is the largest English public school board in Quebec. Established on July 1, 1998, when the province created new boards along linguistic lines, the SMÀ¦°ó network consists of 77 schools and centres. For more details, visit the SMÀ¦°ó website at .
