TEACHER RECRUITMENT JOB FAIR ~ 2018's Job Fair was held Saturday, January 27 at the Salem Civic Center! Thanks to all that attended!
Our tentative 2019 Job Fair date is Saturday, January 26. Thank you.

WVPEC members come together annually to recruit for teaching positions in our area. Take advantage of this recruitment fair and meet face-to-face with the individuals that make the hiring decisions for their districts! Held in Jan/Feb, if you are a student and will be eligible to hold a teaching degree the following May or over the summer, this is the Job Fair for you. Check the link above for additional information.

If you are planning on attending next year's Job Fair, download the Universal Application on the Job Fair page and gather your information! You will be one step ahead of the masses that apply by creating an important impression with the recruiters.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ~should never cease! Literacy, math, performance-based assessments, nurturing teachers ~ we cover it all and more! Consider registering and check back frequently because updates are posted as programs are developed. Look under "Professional Development" above future and past conferences. Lastly, please let us know if you have a topic or a desired speaker that you would like featured at a future workshop!
