There was also high attendance at DYPA’s “Career Days” event held on 26 and 27 January 2024 at the Peristeri Exhibition Centre in Athens, which brought together over 200 businesses, offering more than 7,500 jobs; indeed, over 7,000 citizens attended the event with a view to talking directly with the HR staff of the participating businesses.

The students of the Neo Iraklion, Galatsi and Egaleo EPAS warmly welcomed the visitors at their schools’ info desks, providing relevant information and, depending on their respective field of study / specialty, offered sweets they had themselves prepared, demonstrated their hairdressing or  goldsmithing/silversmithing skills, etc.

The DYPA schools’ info desks received a constant flow of visitors, who showed keen interest in and duly appreciated the importance of Vocational Education and Training for young people’s career development.
