Table of Contents

Students of all ages are invited to sample a smorgasbord of possibilities for education and employment at Henrico County College and Career Night, to be held Oct. 29 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Mills Godwin High School, 2101 Pump Rd.

The annual countywide event offers a chance to talk with representatives of more than 100 universities, colleges and professional programs, as well as about 50 representatives of employers such as businesses, government agencies and branches of the military.

A new time-saving feature – pre-registration barcodes – will allow students to scan personal barcodes to easily transfer information from colleges that pique their interest. To obtain a barcode, students are asked to fill out a brief questionnaire ahead of the event at gotocollegefairs.com.
