The final MAKERZ DAY career fair of 2026 will take place on Saturday, November 14, at the Carl-von-Bach-Gymnasium in Stollberg.
From 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., students and parents can explore local training and study opportunities at the event’s final stop of the year, according to Wirtschaftsförderung Erzgebirge GmbH.
The event connects students directly with regional companies, universities, and vocational guidance experts. Attendees can discuss internship requirements, application processes, and specific job roles with representatives stationed throughout the sports hall.
The Erzgebirge district administration will maintain an information booth at the event to highlight career paths within the local government. This participation aims to position the district office as a competitive employer and training provider for local youth, the Erzgebirgskreis reported.
Beyond static information, the fair features interactive displays and live demonstrations designed to provide a realistic view of various industries. These activities allow participants to test their interest in specific trades and professional fields before committing to an application.
The organizers, including the Wirtschaftsförderung Erzgebirge GmbH and the Fachkräfteallianz Erzgebirge, emphasize that early, hands-on career orientation is a primary strategy for securing skilled labor within the Erzgebirge region. By facilitating face-to-face meetings, the fair aims to simplify the transition from school to professional life.
The fair is open to students and their families interested in exploring regional prospects. Detailed information regarding exhibitors, floor plans, and specific offerings is available on the official website at [www.makerz.me].
