“This competition provided the opportunity for our students to be able to utilize the skills they’ve learned in the classroom and execute them in a pitch style presentation,” stated Melissa Smith, Joplin Advanced Training & Technology Center Director. “These four individuals came together as team and represented Crowder College in a most professional manner.”
