Each year, local high school juniors and seniors are invited to the Gorge College and Career Expo!  At the Expo, students learn about careers in the trades and  pathways to college. Students attend workforce skills workshops and connect with industry to learn about current local job opportunities, through a micro-hiring fair.

​

Thank you to our partners, Columbia Gorge Community College and ESD 112 (Career Connect Southwest Washington), as well as the local high schools and industry partners who helped to make the 2024 College and Career Expo a success!
