Newnan-Coweta Chamber
The Chamber's 2021 Coweta Works student career expo will launch virtually on 2.21.21, meeting students where they are in reinventing a traditional in-person expo to suit today's virtual, learn-at-your-own-pace, environment. The marriage between Bitmoji and Google classrooms promises to thoughtfully illustrate the multiple pathways students may explore in developing the knowledge, skills, abilities, and interest in working toward a satisfying career in Coweta County. The platform offers an outstanding opportunity for businesses and industries to showcase, not only their career opportunities but products and services to families across the county, essentially doubling as a B2C expo via a dedicated, curated, and branded promotional "classroom" that will be available 24/7/365 for students and their families. View a basic mock-up of key platform and program elements here.
