Student competitions are a key component of student life and learning at the Ted Rogers School of Management (TRSM) and Toronto Metropolitan University.

 

Competitions allow TRSM students to experience "real-world" business challenges in competitive environments while presenting to industry leaders. Students who participate in conferences and competitions have a richer educational experience overall; the training, collaboration, and competition experience are all important learning opportunities that prepare TRSM students to compete in the business world post-graduation.

TRSS Conference and Competitions Committee works to encourage students to take advantage of these wonderful opportunities by tackling financial barriers students might face when attending these Internal/external conferences.

CCC Testimonials

Adam Lee Him

Sales Enablement Summit

“The sales enablement summit was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, being 1 of only seven students to attend the conference. I was privileged to make so many meaningful connections, hear from some of the industry's brightest on enablement, scaling sales functions, empowering teams, and much more. The knowledge that can take a sales team from being one of the best to becoming THE BEST 🏆.”
