The primary benefit of these career seminars is your

environmental career field or are recruiting environmental professionals. They
have the expertise to inform aspiring environmental professionals on key
qualifications and experience employers are looking for. They will also be able
to discuss current career opportunities and the future outlook for environmental
career fields. Attending the seminar provides the new professionals with
networking opportunities and inside tips, gaining an edge in the job
competition.
The conference is at the Holiday Inn International
