We’re excited to announce that Campus to Commerce will be participating in the 5th Annual Momma I Don’t Want to Go to College Skills and Trade Career Expo! This event showcases alternative career paths beyond traditional college education, connecting attendees with professionals across various industries.

The expo takes place this Saturday, April 26, 2025, at Sugaw Creek Recreation Center in Charlotte. Doors open at 10:00 AM, giving attendees a full day to explore opportunities in trades, technology, business, healthcare, beauty, and more.

Why This Event Matters

For many students and career-changers, finding the right path forward isn’t always straightforward. This expo brings together real professionals with real success stories, providing inspiration and practical next steps for those exploring alternatives to traditional four-year college programs.

As an organization dedicated to connecting students with meaningful work experiences, we’re particularly excited to showcase how micro-internships can build valuable skills and create pathways to promising careers.
