Save the Date for WaterWORKS!
WaterWORKS is a day of exploration and excitement where 400 students from Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket will interact with 60+ blue economy and STEM related employers and educators. Interactive displays, fun activities, in-depth one-on-one conversations, and panel Q&A sessions leave students with a greater understanding of the career opportunities waiting for them here at home.
WaterWORKS promotes blue economy businesses by providing a platform to demonstrate their work, share internships and employment opportunities, and advocate for job skills required in their fields. Our exhibitor attendance grows more each year. We’re proud that of past exhibitors surveyed, 95% say they will return to WaterWORKS.
Educators will be notified as soon as registration is open.
