Show up. Skill up.Stand out

Not a jobs board. Recruiters from resorts, ports, banks, construction, health and the public service take meetings on the floor — with people who can say yes on the spot. Bring a CV; leave with an interview slot.

• 01Live interview booths running all three days, walk-in and pre-booked
• 02Free CV clinic and mock-interview desk staffed by HR practitioners
• 03Apprenticeship and on-the-job training placements, signed on site
• 04Employer talks: what a hiring manager actually reads first

Diploma, degree, certificate, apprenticeship, overseas. See them next to each other, with the cost, the length and the job at the end stated plainly — so the choice is yours and it's an informed one.

• 01Admissions officers from national and private institutions, in person
• 02Scholarship and student-loan desk with same-day eligibility checks
• 03Course comparison walls — fees, duration, entry requirement
• 04Sessions in Dhivehi and English, twice daily

The loudest, busiest corner of the park — and the point of the whole expo. You don't watch a trade here, you do one. Ten minutes with a welding torch tells you more than ten pages of prospectus.

• 01Hands-on bays: welding, marine engineering, electrical, culinary, hairdressing
• 02Live skills competitions with judging on the floor
• 03Dive, hospitality and aviation simulators open to walk-ups
• 04Robotics, drone and digital-fabrication demos from student teams

Island enterprises, makers and graduates selling what they build. Proof that a skill is a livelihood — plus the desks that get a business registered, funded and trading.

• 01SME and island-enterprise stalls, trading across all three evenings
• 02Business registration and SME finance desks on site
• 03Craft, food and fisheries producers from across the atolls
• 04Evening programme: music, food and family activity until late
