NEPA Healthcare Career & College Exploration Event

The annual Healthcare Career & College Exploration Event will take place on Thursday, October 2, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Viewmont Mall in Dickson City. Hosted by NEPA AHEC, this dynamic event brings together over 40 vendors, including colleges, universities, and leading healthcare organizations actively seeking new talent—and many offering exciting incentives for attendees.

This event provides students and community members with a unique opportunity to explore diverse healthcare careers, engage directly with industry professionals, and participate in hands-on activities. Many exhibitors will feature interactive displays and lab equipment to give students a real-world glimpse into medical professions.

We’re excited to welcome school districts from across the region, many of which are providing transportation for students. Last year’s event drew nearly 400 high school students from seven counties, all eager to learn more about careers in healthcare—and this year promises to be even bigger.
