Career Day - University Day 2022

Every year, our School organizes seminars to provide Athens College and Psychico College high school students with information regarding professions and universities. Well-known professionals and university professors give presentations / lectures to students about the disciplines they serve.

Due to the special circumstances prevailing again this year, the lectures / presentations were conducted online. Students were able to access them for a few days, and had the time to watch all the ones that interested them and were able to submit their comments and questions to the speakers.
