Attending an event is a great way to see campus and interact with the Champlain Community.
Business and Entrepreneurship Open House: December 12th
On Saturday, December 12th, faculty of Champlain College's Division of Business, BYOBiz (Bring Your Own Business) program, and members of the Burlington executive community would like to demonstrate how Champlain College students are reaching success despite market and economic challenges. Champlain College business students are starting and sustaining start-up companies, defining the next generation of business occupations and skills, positively contributing to firms like Burton, GE Healthcare, Ben and Jerry's, and many more stories that demonstrate the value of a Champlain College business education. In addition to learning the benefits of the business division, you will experience the beauty of Champlain College, take a tour of campus (if needed), talk with current business students and entrepreneurs, and many more great experiences.
