On Thursday, November 12, from 11:00 a.m. till 2:00 p.m. Centura College invites the community to attend their Essential Career Training Expo. This event will give attendees the opportunity to learn about our career-focused training in fields that have proven to be essential during the COVID-19 pandemic. Expo attendees will have the Centura College standard application fee waived and program guidance will be provided by admissions. Financial aid and career services teams will be onsite to help answer questions during the event.

This year, the U. S. experienced the suspension of “non-essential” career markets to decelerate the circulation of COVID-19. With this deferral, select occupations were declared essential workers, or those who perform services that are essential to continue vital foundation operations in communities, cities, and states. Some of Virginia’s essential businesses have included allied health and trades-focused industries such as health care or medical services, industrial manufacturing and home improvement facilities.

Centura College offers training in the following career fields: Wind Turbine Technician, Construction Electrician, Medical Assisting, Combination Welding, Business Management, Operations Management, Massage Therapy, CDL Class A Truck Driving, Carpentry, Dental Assisting, Medical Billing and Coding, Biomedical Equipment Technology, Allied Health Management and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC).
