The Dhillon School of Business at the University of Lethbridge is hosting a free, one-day event designed to give high school students an unforgettable introduction to the world of business.

Sponsored by the CPA Education Foundation, Student Professional Development Day combines interactive learning, inspiring talks and hands-on simulations to showcase what it’s like to study business and prepare for future leadership roles.

Students will enjoy a free breakfast, followed by an inspiring keynote, Excuses to Connect, by Richard Lee-Thai, where they’ll learn creative strategies to build meaningful connections and seize valuable opportunities.

In the next session, Introduction to Management, participants will dive into the fundamentals of business through interactive activities focused on leadership, teamwork and problem-solving.

After a free lunch, the day continues with a hands-on business simulation. Students will take on the role of CEO, managing a lemonade stand and competing to make the highest profit.
