Online registration begins December 2nd (Tuesday) at 10 am and ends on Friday, December 12th. Spots fill up VERY quickly for some of the more popular sites, so visit http://www.eace.org/committees/roadtrips.html to register early for the best selection.

Each of the Road Trips is planned by the employer and staffed by a member of the EACE Road Trips Committee. The programs are free for students; however, you must provide your own transportation to and from the site.

Once registered for a site, students will receive instructions to RSVP, prior to December 19th to confirm they plan to attend. As always, NO-SHOWS AND LATE CANCELLATIONS ARE STRONGLY DISCOURAGED as you want to leave a positive impression with the employer host.

Road Trips to the Real World is brought to you by the Office of Career Services and is sponsored by the Eastern Association of Colleges and Employers (EACE).
