Rivermont Collegiate Technology Fair February 22, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm Rivermonte Collegiate School, 3518-3322 Somerset Dr, Bettendorf, IA 52722, USA
As a preparatory event to the regionally hosted Iowa Technology Education Connection Tech Fair in May, Rivermont Collegiate hosts an annual Technology fair for K-12 students who are interested in submitting technology-based projects for competition at the statewide level.

Rivermont will be hosting the “first round” of submissions in a competition to prepare students to be selected at the statewide level. The event will also feature a career fair that invites various local businesses to share what tech-based career options are available in the Quad Cities area.

We are currently seeking judges for the student project competition. We are also seeking Information/Activity booths for our career fair. If interested in presenting or volunteering, email msweeney@rivermontcollegiate.org.

As our high school students prepare for graduation, we feel that it is important to expose them to what technology-based career options are available to them, especially within our local community.
