Virginia Career Works - Henrico Center's Construction & Skilled Trades Career Fair

Looking for a career that pays well, can't be outsourced, and doesn't come with student loan debt? Join us for the Virginia Career Works – Henrico Center's April 2026 Construction & Skilled Trades Career Fair, held in celebration of National Apprenticeship Week!

And if "construction" and "skilled trades" make you think only of getting dirty outside—think again!

This event features a wide range of career paths, including hands on work, technical roles, leadership tracks, and opportunities that blend problem solving, technology, and teamwork! Come with an open mind—you might be surprised by what you discover!

Skilled trades careers continue to offer strong starting wages, long-term earning potential, and faster paths to financial stability—often rivaling or surpassing salaries tied to traditional four-year college degrees! This event is about showcasing careers where you can earn while you learn, build real skills, and grow into high-demand, well-paying roles!
