The Military Veterans Employment Expo (MVEE) is proud to sponsor industry specific Employer Information Panels designed to educate you about current industry trends and better prepare you for the job fair on May 17th.

These Panels are two and half hour courses. The first hour consists of a panel discussion with 4 to 8 industry experts who can share with you valuable information about their industry, trends they are seeing, entry points for career changers and entry level candidates, and what it takes to succeed. After the panel discussion, attendees will have 1 ½ hours to meet with individual employers in a small group setting to discuss opportunities specific to their individual company.

MVEE will also host a one hour Speed Networking event designed to help you practice your ’30 second commercial’ which is so important when first meeting an employer.

What makes MVEE classes unique is they are taught by private sector industry experts!

All MVEE Industry courses will be held at the Pikes Peak Community College Centennial Campus located at 5675 South Academy Blvd.
