Willemstad, Curacao. The 2017 Curacao Study and Career Fair held on November 8 and 9 at the World Trade Center in Piscadera Bay was organized by the Curacao Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Mon Art Productions. The annual event was divided into two sections – a morning and evening session.
Each exhibitor had a booth and semi-private space to give presentations to the audience of potential students, parents and student counselors.
Canadian trade commissioner, Victor Stott, who specializes in the education sector for the Curacao market, explained that services from the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service are offered free of charge to Canadian companies and organizations.
Over 30 participating educational institutions, including many from Canada, participated and half as many corporate entities were present as well. The schedule was rotated hourly through the booths, where the exhibitors gave some basic information on the requirements to apply to study at their institution and to visit their websites for more information.
Florida State University, when further pressed for information about specifics on enrollment, culture readjustment or anything else outside of the regular questions, apparently wanted to avoid such issues.
The majority of the Canadian universities that fielded questions from students and this correspondent were amply prepared with quick responses in a friendly manner.
However, among the Dutch universities, Lotte Donders and Maastricht University were possibly among the worst of all 30 exhibitors interviewed, based on their behaviour and apparent inability to answer questions with a respectful and professional demeanour.
