The students learned that in addition to book knowledge, they need to have employability skills such as problem-solving and communication skills, and the ability integrate knowledge and skills in the workplace. They also learned that the best way to acquire such skills is through operating a Virtual Enterprise. At the end of the symposium, the audience was invited to visit the booths displayed by IVE students during the occasion of the Open Day, and to engage in trading with the VE's on the premises.
