Description

Find your Future is a careers and employment fair – bringing together over 50 major employers from a variety of sectors to showcase career opportunities on offer in Central Bedfordshire in an interactive and informative setting.

As well as being able to talk with the experts about what’s out there in terms of jobs and training and what skills are needed to access them, visitors will have the chance to explore work experience, traineeships, apprenticeships and employment opportunities.

We'll help you:

  • explore the range of career opportunities available in Central Bedfordshire
