MESSAGE FROM YOUR CHAIR - Coming together

Hello to all our NIC School of Business students, alumni and supporters in the community.

The last few months have been a challenging time for all of us. We at NIC have been working hard to ensure our students have access to the resources and receive the supports they need to continue their studies. We are thankful for the support of our co-op and internship employers, mentors and all those in the business community who have stepped forward with offers of assistance in this time.

Work continues on expanding opportunities for our students. As always, our focus is on being responsive and providing access. This continues with our switch to alternate delivery methods to finish out the winter term. Those delivery methods will extend to our spring/summer course offerings, which include a range of business courses.

We also continue to work to expand global opportunities, including a new Double Degree offering with Université Savoie Mont Blanc. We have seen how interconnected our world is today and how crucial it is for our students to gain international experience.

We know this has also been a challenging time for businesses in our community, perhaps the most challenging time we have ever seen, but there are still good news and stories out there. Our Alumni Feature is an opportunity to celebrate the hard work and incredible achievements of our alumni.

If you have a story you’d like to share, please reach out to me at ali.mayboudi@nic.bc.ca.

Sincerely,
Ali Mayboudi, Chair,
NIC School of Business
