How the Competition Works
Students can register individually and then be assigned to a team, or they can register as part of team, but everyone participating must register. Teams can be two to four people.
Teams will be given the problem solving challenge at the beginning of the event. Over the next few hours they will define a problem, gather and analyze data, come up with an idea, and implement a final solution. At least one team member must be present during work time, and all members must attend final presentations.
At the final presentation, teams will present their problem and solutions. Winners will receive monetary prizes (up to $5,400 will be awarded for various categories) and recognition at the Reynolds and Reynolds Sales Leadership Institute End of Year Banquet on April 22.
