Lighthouse Community Centre set to host empowering career expo in Springs

The Lighthouse Community Centre's annual career expo equips youngsters so they are able to make more informed decision about their future careers.

The Lighthouse Community Centre invites the community to its third annual career day expo from July 9 to 11 at 82 Charterland Avenue in Selcourt.

To deepen its impact, the centre has extended this year’s initiative from a single-day event to a comprehensive three-day programme.

The expo will run from 09:00 to 15:00 on the days.

This event forms part of the community development centre’s strategy to empower youth with information to support informed decisions about their futures and careers.

“The event spanning over three days will focus on different aspects. Day one will focus on HR, CV drafting and mock interviews; day two will focus on institutional and company exhibitions with student engagement and lastly, day three will include exhibitions with extended access for the broader community,” said Mahlale Mokoena, co-ordinator of the community development centre.

He revealed the event will feature keynote addresses by professionals in various industries, information stalls by institutions of higher learning, and a help desk.

“The expo will benefit attendees by providing an opportunity for keynote addresses, stalls that will allow interaction with learners and the facilitation of career pathing discussions,” he said.
