PRINCE GEORGE—A team of students out of CNC’s Business Management program placed second at the 2020 Western Canadian Business Competition (WCBC) in Kelowna.

The WCBC is an annual business competition where students apply their knowledge and skills towards developing strategic solutions in a simulated business scenario.

The team made up of four students, Catherine Kemp, Dylan Thideman, Kyndra Farrell, and Sarah Armstrong also came in second for best business plan as well as newly minted Team Spirit Award.

The simulation had the students create and run a drone and camera company for eight years.

At first the team faced some difficulties, getting off to a rough start, but they continued on, later saying that the rough start was a good learning experience.
