Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne is encouraging job seekers to explore new career opportunities at the statewide Arizona Education Job Fair & Career Expo.

The event hosted by the Arizona Department of Education will be held 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4, 2023 at the Renaissance Phoenix Glendale Hotel.

“Arizona public schools are some of our state’s largest employers providing a wide array of career opportunities that many people may not even be aware of,” said Horne in a press release. “Arizonans attending the fair will have the opportunity to explore and perhaps secure an excellent job where their skills can support public education throughout our state."

At least 130 Arizona public schools will have recruiting booths at the job fair. Attendees will be able to speak with employers about open positions and learn more about the vast career opportunities and benefits available to school staff.

The participating schools will be able to issue letters of intent and job offers to prospective teachers, and other new hires pending background checks. Representatives from ADE’s Certification Section will also be available to counsel attendees on becoming a certified teacher in Arizona. Convenient finger printing will be on site for interested applicants.
