Location: The Northside Marketplace21 Furnace Street, Akron, OH 44308 (next door to The Courtyard by Marriott Akron Downtown)8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.About the event from a member's perspective:"Last year, we had a unique opportunity to converse with college students at Bowling Green State University in an informal environment, and the dialogue was truly meaningful. Not only did we learn more about today's college students, they were able to better understand our business and the many careers we provide, specifically to our individual companies. The ability to discuss these opportunities and the training our industry provides to prepare students to enter our business was impactful. It was a great way to get the word out on why the insurance industry is a great career choice and engaging with students helped us convey that message." - Kevin Wermer, FCCI Insurance Group, OII Education & Workforce Development Committee Chair
