New for 2025

We have the fantastic opportunity for you and your business to be part of

two incredible careers fairs!

(in Newbury and Reading)

 

         

Destinations Expo 2025 – Newbury

We extend a warm invitation to all local organisations to join us at our annual interactive careers fair dedicated to Year 11-13 students from West Berkshire and North Hampshire.

As the largest event of its kind in the area, the Destinations Expo offers an exceptional opportunity for local businesses to connect with fresh talent, ignite inspiration in the future workforce, and spotlight the advantages of being part of your organisation.

Universities and pathway providers from beyond our local borders are also invited to participate, providing a platform to engage with over 1500 post-16 students as they deliberate on their future paths.

Date: Thursday 9th October 2025

Venue: Newbury College have generously provided access to their outstanding campus with excellent facilities. You will be guaranteed a steady but manageable flow of students at your stand throughout the day.

There are additional opportunities to enhance your organisations experience such as sponsorship and/or providing a talk in one of our forums to a young, captive audience.  

Here’s what some of our employers and pathway providers said about 2023’s event:

“Destinations Expo is so important for students to start engaging with professionals, but also for employers to identify interests from their future workforce.”

“This event is now the start of Xtrac’s apprenticeship recruitment as we get so many positive enquiries that turn into employment. The timing of this is perfect.”
