This is the 12th edition of the Rouen apprenticeship, work-study and career fair at the Rouen Expo Park.
What is the apprenticeship, work-study and career fair?
The fair offers an opportunity to receive direct and practical answers to questions such as the choice between apprenticeship contract or professionalization contract, the levels of studies required to start the work-study program, the pace of training, the status of students in business and how the work-study program works with Parcoursup. Work-study is a training method which alternates between periods of theoretical teaching and practical time, with several types of contracts available to obtain different diplomas, ranging from CAP to bac+5 level. Young people can learn a trade, obtain a recognized qualification and develop practical skills thanks to this formula. Around 8 out of 10 work-study students find a job within the year following the end of their studies.

Each Student Fair will be enriched with its own online platform, available approximately one month before the physical event and will remain accessible until the following Wednesday.
Thanks to this new service, young people will be able to have an improved and more inspiring visit experience. Thematic and personalized tour routes will be offered according to their interests. The online platform of the show will provide better visibility to visitors considering their study choices, in particular with the provision of a plan, a list of exhibitors (15 days before), a conference program , as well as content from the site letudiant.fr. The establishment of this service results from the observation that, during previous fairs, young people and their parents often visited without preparation and sometimes lacked important information.
