Spring 2026 Health and Human Services Fair
Date: Thursday, April 2, 2026
Time: 2:30 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. (Fair) 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. (Student Breakout Sessions)
Location: Blackwell Hall
The Longwood University Office of Alumni and Career Success will be hosting a Health and Human Services Career Fair on April 3rd, 2025 in conjunction with our College of Education, Health and Human Services (CEHHS).
The event will be formatted differently than a traditional career fair (although employers will have a table), but there will be several opportunities to speak to students: a career fair session, a professional development session, and a dinner with students in their field. All of these events, including the dinner, are included in the $300.00 registration fee and will cover up to 4 representatives.
We are requesting that employers bring one or two of their practitioners with them to the event (as part of the 4 people included in registration) in order to be able to take part in breakout sessions and conversations with our students, which will also serve as a time for your practitioners to highlight their careers and the benefits of working for their employers.
*Please note that sending practitioners is a requirement of attending the Health and Human Services Career Fair. Practitioners may be sent in addition to or in place of recruiters*
