Over the past several weeks, participants have gone beyond traditional case competition formats—working in teams to research, define, and develop actionable solutions to complex workforce issues in partnership with industry and community collaborators. The result is a dynamic, high-energy event that simulates real management decision-making and highlights the power of experiential learning at Trent Durham.
The Showcase will feature live team presentations, feedback from industry judges, and the celebration of top teams across all three streams. It is also an opportunity to engage with students, faculty, and community partners who are collectively shaping the future of work in our region and beyond.
All are welcome. Light refreshments will be available.
