June 30, 2016—The second annual Cars, Careers, & Celebrities Expo, hosted by the Collision Repair Education Foundation, will take place on Sept. 16 at the Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Ill.
The event is both a career fair and trade show meant to showcase the career viability of the collision repair industry. The Ed. Foundation anticipates as many as 400 high school and college students, instructors and school administrators to attend the expo.
Approximately 20 companies are currently going to participate in the event. Students will have the opportunity to do mock interviews, see demonstrations, participate in hands-on exercises, meet NASCAR drivers, and speak with potential employers.
