What is the ISB Pathways Career Fair?

The ISB Pathways Program aims to provide High School students with valuable work experience and guidance. We do this through internships, job shadowing, the career fair and visiting guest speakers.

The Career Fair brings professionals from our alumni, parent and the wider Bangkok community to join a panel discussion and a fair. The panel addresses student questions about how to choose the right path of career, how to approach career choices and opportunities, and gives our speakers a chance to share their personal story and their journey on their career path. The fair that follows gives students the opportunity to ask particular, more detailed questions to the visiting professionals about their job and industry.

We’re currently looking for parent speakers to join the panel and Pathways program for the next Career Fair on January 24th, from 10am to noon.

Should you be interested, please register here.

Unfortunately, given the transient nature of our community, often we need to bid farewell to families at the end of Semester 1. For those of you who are not returning to ISB after Semester 1, we would like to please remind you to notify the appropriate divisional office/s as soon as possible and complete the withdrawal form to enable us to process school records that will be required by the new school. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
