The door is open for the business community to start engaging with these bright students. There are a number of events that will be taking place in the next few months, and businesses are encouraged to get involved and get to know tomorrow’s workforce. Here is a list of a few: February 27-28 2024 Utah Asphalt Conference: UAPA will be hosting 200 CTE students from the state of Utah at the annual conference held at the Mountain America Expo Center. Students come ready to learn about the industry and explore possible career paths. April 22-23, 2024 Skills and Trade Night: We are hosting this event two nights in a row. West Jordan High School will host on April 22, and Riverton High School will host on April 23. The goal is to get students who are not headed to a traditional university track and are looking for other viable options to meet with businesses and be exposed to a variety of career paths. February 2025 Pathways to Professions: Held at the Mountain America Expo Center. This event is open to industry partners and businesses from all over the valley. This past year, we had approximately 4,600 juniors and seniors attend. The idea is to introduce students to different careers.
