Students from 17 universities competed over two days recently to determine the top three teams in Canada.

秀色短视频 team members Sherilyn Acorn, Cornwall, Patrick Crossman, Summerside, and Stefanie Moore, Crapaud, each won $750 for their efforts. Daniel Perry, Stratford, was spare and will be a member of next year's team.

"They were up against students from the larger universities in Canada, such as, Ryerson, McGill, and Alberta which offer extensive studies in Human Resource Management, said Professor Don MacCormac who coached the team. To come in second among such competition reflects positively on our students and the education they receive at 秀色短视频.

These students showcase themselves, the School, and 秀色短视频 on the national stage."
