Boise State Teacher Education and the Career Center co-hosted the 2016 Boise State Teacher Education Career Fair yesterday in the Student Union Building, with over 35 school districts from Idaho and Oregon in attendance.

Boise State student teacher candidates who are scheduled to graduate this May met with districts to fill teaching positions for elementary and secondary education, as well as areas considered ‘high-need’ in special education and STEM education.

The event featured a ‘share out’ portion for the first half which each district/organization briefly presented to the group of candidates. The second part of the fair included the ‘walkabout’ session with candidates networking with potential employers. Interviews were conducted on-site throughout the day, and some candidates received offers of employment.

The next Boise State Teacher Education Career Fair is scheduled for Spring 2017.
