Modeled after traditional athletic signing days, the event recognizes students entering or newly enrolled in PCC’s career and technical programs. It provides students and their families an opportunity to celebrate their commitment while reinforcing their path toward program completion and career success.
A featured highlight of this year’s event is the participation of Roger Tadajewski, Executive Director of the National Coalition of Certification Centers (NC3), who will be in attendance and deliver remarks during the program.
More than 60 local employers will be on-site to connect with students and recruit for jobs, apprenticeships, internships, with some on-site interviews.
Focus on Your Future is open to the public, inviting community members to explore career pathways, engage with employers and learn more about PCC’s workforce programs.
