The current PMP class were surprised with the visit of last summer's PMP class.

Two Cohorts of SFU MBA Class

After our study tour of SFU's Venture Labs, we went to Smokehouse Sandwich Co. in The Cathedral Place on Granville for lunch and while they were enjoying their lunch and their usual exciting conversations, I surprised them with a visit with some of the grad students from the present batch of MBA class (nearly all from last summer's preMBA cohort had turned up). I was surprised too because all the previous grad students from last year's class turned up which I did not expect at all.

The PMP Club

They also tacked along a few new friends. It was a sight to enjoy, seeing the two cohorts of SFU MBA class together. It really brought back memories of the time when I was an MBA student. One group is just getting started and the other group is about to graduate and start internship. The PreMasters Program has truly been a successful program thus far providing the transitioning for international students coming to the SFU MBA program. And also the SFU M.App.Sc. program.

Live Case Study

It was really gratifying to see last summer's PreMBA students finally graduating and moving on with their respective careers. I have been staying in touched with many of these students and happy to say that they have made it.

So, at the end of it all, there were still some unfinished business to attend to. I got the class (current PMP class) together and introduced them to the instructions for their live case study. I regrouped the class to two teams and have them build interview questions. And then, conduct an interview with the owner of Smokehouse Sandwich Co., who happened to be in the sandwich shop.
