Parents, high-school students, recent grads and anyone seeking improved career options encouraged to attend

Florida Community College is hosting a free Summer Education Fest at Avenues Mall, 10300 Southside Blvd., (at the intersection of Southside and Philips Highway) on June 18 from 5:30–8 p.m. The Education Fest is an open house highlighting dozens of FCCJ’s more than 200 programs. Department representatives will be on hand to answer questions for those who want to improve their career outlook with programs and degrees relevant to current employer needs. As a special attraction, attendees will have the opportunity to meet professional quarterback and Florida Telco Credit Union spokesperson David Garrard.

Workshops will provide details on new bachelor’s and associate degrees, short-term certificate program — even high-school completion programs. Information will be presented on FCCJ’s new bachelor degrees in Nursing, Computer Systems Networking and Telecommunications; and Supervision and Management; online and accelerated degree options; and flexible day, weekend and evening schedules.

Representatives will also be on hand to provide information about enrollment and financial aid, including scholarships. Program information will be available throughout the evening, and scheduled workshops begin at 6, 6:45 and 7:30 p.m. For more information contact the Learner Support Center at 904.646.2300 or e-mail info@fccj.edu.
