Competition or Leadership Fee
The top regional competitors in the Individual Series Events, Principles Events, Team Decision Making Events, Integrated Marketing Campaign Events, Professional Selling and Consulting Events, Project Management, Business Management and Entrepreneurship Events challenge each other at the Provincial Competition for a chance to earn a spot to the International Career Development Conference.
All students competing in the Oral events will be writing a multiple choice test on February 3 or 4 EXCEPT those assigned to the Business Management & Administration Cluster and Hospitality Cluster Exams (they write in-person on February 8).
Presenting fully developed business proposals, these events are not for the faint-hearted. Following very specific guidelines, our written event competitors are evaluated on their pragmatism, evidence-based decision making, and attention to detail.
Sharpening their tools for a better future, participants in the leadership academies engage in a full day of professional development and training led by industry professionals and leadership development professionals.

2024 PROVINCIALS
All events will be sectioned which means that only the top one from each Judge section will move on to the Internationals REGARDLESS of score. Sectioning helps to eliminate judge bias but it’s difficult to explain to students that even though they have an overall mark that is higher than one of the competitors going, that they did not qualify. The ranking according to Judge section matters and not the overall score. Click on link to see How Results are Tabulated. If the event had a test, it was factored into the overall score.
