Now if you are looking for a real career, not just a job, I need you to hear about what is happening today in Woodside.
The Delaware Department of Labor is hosting the Building Delaware Together Statewide Construction Workforce Expo at POLYTECH High School, and it runs in two parts. From 1 to 3 this afternoon, it is open to high school students. From 4 to 6, it opens up to the public and job seekers.
Now here’s the thing. This is not just a job fair. You are going to find employers, apprenticeship programs, training providers, and trade associations, all in one room, ready to talk to you about a future in construction.
And honestly, that matters right now, because Delaware needs skilled workers. Roads, schools, homes, they all get built by someone. This expo covers workplace safety, connects people to real apprenticeships, and opens doors for young people who may have never thought about a construction career.
Delaware Labor Secretary LaKresha Moultrie put it simply, saying this event is about more than construction. It is about building careers and strengthening communities.
At the end of the day, if you are a job seeker, a parent, or a student wondering what comes after graduation, get yourself to POLYTECH High School on Walnut Shade Road in Woodside before 6 o’clock tonight. Can’t make it in person? You can still register and learn more at industrialaffairs.delaware.gov.
This is what DETV is here for, because at DETV, we believe informed communities build stronger communities.
Stay informed. Stay working. Stay Delaware.
You gave me 90 seconds. I gave you the nation. Big Ive out.
