Our Accounting students (AC250912) took on a “Puzzling” team‑building challenge as part of their Professional Relationships competency. Working in randomly assigned teams, they strategized, problem‑solved, and reached consensus on how to tackle the task.

Some even found clever tech‑based solutions to support their group. The engagement was incredible—many students jumped in to help other teams once they finished.

This hands‑on activity gave them a real opportunity to experience the value of teamwork and how collaboration builds trust and respect in the workplace.
