The Career Center said that in addition to many local employers, there will also be professionals on hand to discuss training opportunities with those interested in attending or returning to school.

The Northwest Technical School will provide information about their CNA program and continuing education opportunities. North Central Missouri College out of Trenton, which has a satellite program in Maryville, plans to attend and share information on their LPN and RN programs as well as other health care occupations.

A variety of local health care employers will be represented at the Health Care Career Fair and plan to pass out applications and conduct on-the-spot interviews.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a form of identification and several copies of their resume. Business-casual dress is suggested. Employers will be hiring for NA’s, CNA’s, LPN’s, RN’s and other support staff positions, such as maintenance, janitorial and kitchen help.

A complete list of employers and training providers, as well as other exciting details, will be announced on the Missouri Career Center’s Facebook page (Missouri Career Center-Maryville), on the Regional Council’s website (www.nwmorcog.org) and via other local media outlets closer to the date of the event.
