“This is the first chance many of these students get to see potential careers.


There are a lot of jobs out there. About 65 percent of all jobs require two-year 


degrees and certifications. Not all jobs require college degrees.” said Todd 


Bennington, Vice President of Operations, BorgWarner-Seneca Facility. He 


added, “It’s all about the kids getting ready to put together their career plans.”


More than 50 organizations from small businesses to large corporations to 


colleges had representatives on site at the Showcase to answer whatever 


questions the students had.


Reviews are still coming in but those received have been very positive from 


both the schools and the exhibitors. It was the first time for Anderson and 


Pickens Counties to be included in the Showcase and as plans are being made 


for the 2011 Showcase they are excited to be part of future Showcase event.


Jim Alexander, Director, Oconee County Economic Development Commission 


said, “Ray Farley (Executive Director, Pickens Alliance) and I chatted about next year and they are very willing to be a part of the Showcase and Ray believes a two-day event would be supported by the Pickens County industrial folks.”
