Induction week 2009

Kin-ball tournament as part of teambuilding exercises at Danparcs Søhøjlandet.

Induction week for new students of the AP Programmes in Hospitality and Tourism Management, Retail Management, and Marketing Management.

Two days of the induction week 2009 at Dania – Danish Academy of Business and Technology, Minerva Randers - took place at Danparcs Holiday Centre Søhøjlandet in Gjern.

On 2 and 3 September Hospitality and Tourism students and on the two following days Marketing Management and Retail Management Students went to the holiday centre. A number of activities had been arranged in order for students to get to know each other and the lecturers.

Kin-ball tournament
Among other things the students participated very eagerly in Kin-ball tournaments – Hospitality and Tourism students in the open, whereas Marketing and Retail students played indoors due to bad weather. Kin-ball is very well-suited for team building, and therefore Dania has purchased three such balls and all other equipment needed for this game. The plan is to include Kin-ball in the induction week in the coming years.

Poster exhibition
The Marketing Management students continued their introduction activities on Monday 7 September. In groups they were to create posters with pictures from the trip to the holiday centre, which were exhibited in the hall at Dania. Also in groups the students created PowerPoint presentations based on a case about the Danparcs holiday centre.
