Chamber career expo
showcased opportunities 

More than 450 eighth graders, including Carrollton Junior High School students, traveled to the University of West Georgia last Friday to attend a career expo hosted by the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce.

Students heard from professionals representing different career fields such as engineering, nursing/medical, business and cosmetology, among others. Each student also had the opportunity to visit two different career pathways and hear from someone working in the field. They also heard from UWG President Kyle Marrero and West Georgia Technical College President Steve Daniel.

"It's amazing that our community gives us these opportunities to help us plan for our future," said Addison Kimball.

"I enjoyed seeing the requirements needed to make it in the medical field,"  said Nate McLaughlin.

The event was coordinated by the chamber's Workforce Education Task Force with the goal of supporting the development of a highly trained and educated workforce for Carroll County.
