The Kariera was introduced in 2006 in the capital of the actual EU Presidency country, Ljubljana. Initially focused merely on the employment market, a survey stated visitors were strongly interested in educational programs abroad, mainly Undergraduate degrees, Masters, MBA and language courses. The Slovenian market, due to its size and historical background, offers little options to career oriented individuals looking for further formation opportunities. As a consequence, such turned themselves to the Western European countries in order to seek such knowledge.
Following this line of thoughts and taking into account the wish of the visitors, the event expanded its coverage and now reserves half of its 5000 m2 exhibition space to high quality Educational providers.
A strong marketing plan is in place and more than 250,000 euros will be spent in order to promote the event in diverse means of communication such as in national publications (leading national newspapers and magazines), in flyers, billboards, on internet and the whole event will be also covered and publicized by the national television. To complement, a promotional campaign will be held in Universities and High Schools of the main cities around country.
With more than 17,000 visitors and 94 exhibitors in just two days event in 2007, Kariera 2008 can only expect to be successful once again!

The Fairs Aims/Focus
The objective of the Educational Fair is to expose to career oriented individuals a diversity of quality Educational options. A growing number of Slovenians have been seeking such opportunities abroad although little information about such programs is provided in Slovenia. We wish to use our means of communication and our fair as an intermediary between the Slovenian market and high quality institutions abroad.
Special emphasis will be made on Undergraduate, Masters, MBA and language courses. A robust marketing plan is in place in order to attract the most qualified professionals and recent graduated to the event. Your participation will not resume itself to two days at the career fair, a strong marketing promotion will start in June to provide not only brand awareness of the event, but mostly to publicise its participants and their offerings.
