The answer to “what do you want to be when you grow up?” may have changed since you were first asked that question. Maybe or maybe not.

Perhaps you are on the verge of deciding your occupation, what degree to pursue, what industry will allow for growth and flexibility and consistent financial gain.

These determinations are ironically more difficult to make today than they ever were. The ability to obtain advanced degrees and major in concentrations never before offered, provide for a dizzying array of options.

Here at St. Petersburg College, it is our commitment to educate, but also to open up the realm of possibilities.

To that end, we are hosting a MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLY CHAIN JOB FAIR in partnership with Florida TRADE on March 23, from noon to 3 p.m.
