HUNTSVILLE — As a bridge from high school to the workforce, the Senior Sprint Career Fair helps provide graduates with career and training opportunities.

The program, slated for April 29, is a collaboration among the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber, Huntsville City Schools, Madison City Schools, Madison County Schools, community agencies, and local employers. It is for graduating high school seniors who have not enrolled in a 2- or 4-year college or university, nor made firm post-graduation plans.

To many students, the absence of knowledge prevents them from making firm future-based decisions. The fair seeks to raise awareness of careers for graduating seniors across all three school districts in Madison County and aim them toward a fruitful future.

Employers who are interested in attending this event must be willing to train and hire graduating seniors. This is an event that seeks to engage and interview students on the same day. There will be time during the event for potential on-the-spot interviews.
