CAREERS EXPO

Gisborne's Career Expo 1994 aimed to expose local people to neutral information about work & training rather than what jobs are available at present. Hundreds took the opportunity to view the many stands at the Army Hall and to aquaint themselves with the skills, knowledge and attitudes required by the industry, both now and in the future.
