Our Practical Nursing Program recently hosted its annual Career Fair, bringing together 70 students, regional health care employers, and higher education partners for a day focused on what comes next.

Level 3 and Level 4 students arrived prepared, resumes in hand, ready to build connections and explore opportunities, from entry-level LPN roles to pathways for continued education and career growth across Chester County and beyond.

We were proud to welcome 19 vendors representing a strong mix of health care organizations and academic institutions. Their time, insight, and engagement gave students a valuable, real-world look at hiring expectations, benefits, and professional advancement.

The energy in the room reflected what this program is all about: students stepping confidently into their professional identities, employers recognizing their potential, and a community committed to supporting the next generation of practical nurses.

Thank you to every vendor who participated and every student who showed up ready to take the next step!
