The 2011 GIBS Career Expo held on 7 May was a resounding success, with 33 exhibitors and 2337 learners in attendance.
Learners from about 150 schools across Gauteng who attended, were selected based on academic results and leadership potential.
The career expo is an initiative to facilitate the exposure of high achieving grade 11 and 12 school learners in Gauteng to the wide variety of possible careers, bursaries and opportunities offered by exhibiting companies, as well as hearing about the study opportunities offered by different educational institutions.
The exhibition allows learners direct interaction with companies, educational institutions and role models in various careers. The learners who attended would be responsible for reporting on their experiences to their schools. This allows for information to filter to the rest of the school in order for all learners to benefit.
