Roane State Community College

February 15, 2025

Roane State will host a College and Career Expo at its flagship campus in Harriman on April 23, 2025, to help connect students and the community with academic programs and workforce opportunities.

The event is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. ET inside the gymnasium at the Roane County Campus, which is located at 276 Patton Lane in Harriman. Parking will be available in the student lot accessible via Entrance B.

Approximately two dozen local employers have already signed on to participate in the Expo, with additional businesses expected to be added prior to the event. Industries include healthcare, finance, education, engineering, nonprofits, and more.

Roane State’s academic programs will also be represented at the Expo so current and potential students can learn how each educational path at Roane State can lead them to a rewarding career. Info on all RSCC programs can be found online at roanestate.edu/academicprograms.

There is no charge for the event. Signage will be posted directing attendees where to go when they arrive. Event organizers encourage those planning to attend to bring a list of their questions and be prepared to share copies of their resume if they are searching for a job.

“The College and Career Expo is the perfect opportunity for anyone considering going back to school or pursuing a new job,” explained Quita Zerr, Roane State’s Director of Recruitment. “We will be working to connect potential students with the degree or certificate program that meets their needs. Anyone looking for a job will also be able to explore a wide variety of employment opportunities in one place.”

Expo registration is still available for employers and local organizations. Anyone interested in reserving a space should contact RSCC Assistant Director of Recruitment Natasha Crabtree by emailing crabtreenk@roanestate.edu for more information.
