I’m thankful that CEO has given me the opportunity to improve my networking skills and to learn more about local businesses in the community. Throughout the semester, I have grown in my communication skills in the classroom by working with my classmates and also building other connections in the Bellville area. One of the most meaningful experiences I have had was when my class was navigating our badge business and learning how to communicate effectively as a team. Our communication skills really made a huge impact in the way we operated the different aspects of the business. Overall, this program has introduced me to so many life lessons that I will always be grateful for. - Ellie Grossmann, Session One
