JA Technical Careers Challenge is a real-world experience that allows teams of middle school students to work with FVTC instructors and business professionals to compete against one another as they manufacture a product or provide a service.

The focus of the competition is on high-demand careers in areas including information technology, forensic science, diesel, supply chain, health services, welding, horticulture and automotive. Students will be asked to rank their preferred areas, every effort will be made to match students with their preferred activity. 

Campus Visit Days are designed specifically for high school groups. These career exploration visits highlight a variety of career training options, as well as a general college overview, a basic overview of a career cluster area, and student panel discussion.
