Success of participants and students in the 4th Benidorm Educational Fair, the first of a regional nature

The 4th edition of Benidorm Educational Fair, the first of a regional nature, is being, for another year, a success for participants and students. During the morning session, more than 1,500 4th ESO and Basic Vocational Training students from Benidorm and other towns in the Marina Baixa visited Carrer de Pilota del Palau d'Esports l'Illa to find out in detail about the educational possibilities, training, and employment at your fingertips, both in the region and outside it.

The mayor, Toni Pérez; his counterpart from La Vila Joiosa, Andreu Verdú; the Councilor for Education of Benidorm. Maite Moreno; the FP prospector from area 13; members of the Municipal Corporation and neighboring towns such as l'Alfàs del Pi, have visited the Fira today and exchanged impressions with the participants: educational centers that provide training courses in the region for a total of 19 professional families, public and private universities, Official School of Languages, Civil Guard, National Police Corps, Local Police, Ministry of Defense, aesthetic academies, employment and local development agencies and business and union organizations.

Toni Pérez recalled that "in 2018 the Department of Education promoted this Educational Fair to reinforce the important task carried out by the Guidance departments of educational centers and for this, we created a unique appointment and space where students could learn about all the job options and training that exist in the region, even outside it, with a view to its most immediate future”.

The mayor recalled this Fair, "this year the Territorial Council for Vocational Training has joined, thus giving this event a regional character that has a vocation for continuity and in which our youngest population has a very valuable resource at the time to plan their educational and work future”. The mayor stressed that "once again Benidorm is once again a driver of initiatives that benefit the entire region, thus sharing resources and generating synergies between municipalities."

The Educational Fair will continue this afternoon, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
