Nice Work-Study and Careers Fair 2027: where to stay

L'Etudiant's training and work-study recruitment fair returns to Nice as a key date for anyone planning their studies or next career move. The event brings together apprenticeship training centres (CFA), schools, universities, training bodies and employers looking for apprentices, giving visitors a clear picture of the work-study options available across the region. The fair is designed for high-school pupils, higher-education students and professionals considering a career change who want to combine study with hands-on work experience. Across the day, visitors can talk directly with admissions staff and recruiters, compare BTS, BUT, bachelor's, master's and school programmes, and get answers on apprenticeship and professionalisation contracts. Alongside the exhibition stands, a free conference programme hosted by L'Etudiant journalists and guidance experts covers topics such as Parcoursup, how to find a host company and the sectors hiring most through work-study schemes. It is a practical way to gain clarity before making decisions and to prepare a CV for on-site conversations. The event takes place at the Palais des Expositions, in the Atrium and Parvis de l'Europe, well connected with central Nice. With large crowds expected, staying at a hotel near the venue makes it easier to arrive early and get the most out of the talks and stand meetings.
