PBL members take part in both the fall and spring conferences. These events offer students the opportunity to network with and compete against members from other chapters across the state.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">The spring conference is the State Business Leadership Conference (SBLC). SBLC took place online this year due to COVID-19. The virtual event (VSBLC) was exciting, and had many similarities to what would have happened at the in-person conference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cWe had two keynote addresses, one live and one prerecorded. There were a variety of networking and social events, most held live. Students were able to participate in all of the competitions. They completed proctored tests online, and submitted skills and presentations to a panel of industry experts,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-199 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-262x300.jpg\" alt=\"Carolyn Seefer\" width=\"262\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-262x300.jpg 262w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-894x1024.jpg 894w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-768x879.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-1341x1536.jpg 1341w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/05\/CSeeferBEFinalEdit-1788x2048.jpg 1788w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/>Each year, there are two business pageant competitions \u2013 Mr. PBL in the fall and Ms. PBL in the spring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cCompetitors in this business pagaent made and posted videos of themselves answering questions and peforming their talents. The winner was announced on Instagram Live at the conclusion of the conference,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">DVC students exceled at all levels of the competition. Multiple DVC students placed within the top 5 in their competition areas. Three of the five elected state office positions went to DVC students. DVC won the state chapter award, and DVC student Alejandra Ruiz Hernandez won the Ms. PBL competition. All students placing first or second in any of the competitions automatically qualify to compete in the National Leadership Conference (NLC).<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_142\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-142\" class=\"wp-image-142 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/Alejandra-Ruiz-Hernandez-Ms-PBL-300x211.jpg\" alt=\"Alejandra Ruiz Hernandez - Ms. PBL\" width=\"300\" height=\"211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/Alejandra-Ruiz-Hernandez-Ms-PBL-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/Alejandra-Ruiz-Hernandez-Ms-PBL.jpg 513w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-142\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DVC student and Ms. PBL winner Alejandra Ruiz Hernandez shows off her basketball skills during the Ms. PBL competition.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cI am so incredibly proud of these students. They took part in the first-ever Virtual State Business Leadership Conference (VSBLC) and thrived,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">Seefer is particularly impressed with how quickly DVC PBL members adapted to the online setting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cThey are holding their general meetings in Zoom. They are preparing for officer elections for the 2020-21 academic year. They are doing this by holding candidate forums in Instagram Live. Interviews for all positions will take place in Zoom,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">These are skills that will benefit members in the long-term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cFlexibility is one of the key traits of a successful entrepreneur or business leader. The current situation puts that trait to work,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">It is expected that PBL activities will need to continue in a remote environment this fall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">\u201cI will greatly miss seeing these students in person, but they are gaining the skills they need now to ensure that DVC PBL will continue on during the next academic year. These valuable skills will carry through with them as they transfer and embark on their careers,\u201d said Seefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">DVC Rankings at VSBLC<\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_140\" style=\"width: 579px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-140\" class=\"wp-image-140 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/State-Team.jpg\" alt=\"State Team\" width=\"569\" height=\"305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/State-Team.jpg 569w, https:\/\/dvc.mycareerfocus.org\/summer-2020-volume-3-issue-1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2020\/04\/State-Team-300x161.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 569px) 100vw, 569px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-140\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the newly elected State Office Team 2020-21.
