Education Workforce Job Fairs

Developing, supporting and sustaining a high-quality, prepared and collaborative education workforce is a high priority of the Michigan Department of Education (MDE). That's why we are hosting a virtual Education Workforce Job Fair to connect job seekers and those hiring teachers, substitute teachers, bus drivers, custodians, paraprofessionals, secretaries, administrators, and other education-related positions.

Dates

Wednesday, May 8, 2024, 10:00am - 2:00pm

About the Job Fairs

Through a partnership with the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO), this fair will utilize the Brazen platform to ensure Michigan can continue to meet the demands of employers and job seekers - virtually! Please note: Brazen works best with the Google Chrome web browser, so please download the latest version prior to participating.

The Education Workforce Job Fair is free of charge for all Local Education Agencies (LEAs), Intermediate School Districts (ISDs), Public School Academies (PSAs), and educator staffing agencies, as well as all job-seeking candidates.  

Information for Job Seekers

Job seekers can connect with school districts from across the state. Registration is free. For the virtual job fair, it is recommended that jobseekers log on to the platform in advance of the event to upload a resume and complete a profile, including any current areas of certification. 

If you'd like to join us as a job seeker for the May event, please register here!

For helpful resources, please view the Brazen Help Center.
