The annual UMaine College of Education and Human Development Career Fair gives school officials from across Maine the opportunity to meet future educators from the state’s largest teacher preparation program. Students graduating this spring who will be eligible for Maine teaching certification in elementary education, secondary education, early childhood education, physical education, music education and art education, as well as students from the the Master of Arts in Teaching program, will attend along with education students from Eastern Maine Community College and Husson University.
Schools that wish to send a representative should register online.
For more information, contact Director of Field Placements and Teacher Preparation Erin Straine, erin.straine@maine.edu.
About the Career Fair
The College of Education and Human Development hosts a Career Fair each spring for teacher candidates to meet with potential employers. The fair is usually held in April, a few weeks before UMaine student teachers earn their degrees and become certified teachers. Many schools and districts in central and eastern Maine, and some from other parts of the state, send representatives to meet our students and discuss job openings with them.
The event is a part of Maine Impact Week, an annual showcase of UMaine’s impact on the state and beyond. It is hosted by the Office of the Vice President for Research and Dean of the Graduate School.
