why attend these montana fairs?


  • Reach Montana high school students & build relationship with your company earlier  |  It is our goal to help connect our Montana high school students to the opportunities for both college and career early in their search process.  
  • Build a pipeline to your company brand & career path earlier  |   Here is a great chance to start a direct relationship with high school students and build that connection early.
  • Connect college & career in the same room ​ | Students will be able to learn the multiple paths to take for different types of careers. 
  • Career Pathway Education - Offer career exploration, relationship building, & mentor contacts earlier  |  Connecting students with career opportunities at the high school level versus waiting until after high school or after college.  We are trying to empower students to connect to a career pathway early in their high school experience.
  • Internships & connection to career earlier  |  High school students can learn about summer employment and internships from the career options.
