After winning the Regional Championship in Chicago this past March, UMKC’s Students in the Free Enterprise (SIFE) team has been awarded membership in the SIFE United States CLUB 44, in recognition of the accomplishments of the top university teams in the nation. Further recognition of the team’s accomplishments occurred when SIFE USA announced in June that UMKC has been chosen as one of 14 universities to host the Fall 2011 Team Training Conferences.

Cary Clark, Sam Walton Fellow at the UMKC Innovation Center and our SIFE team faculty sponsor, anticipates that 300 students, from various universities, will attend the September training at the UMKC Student Union.  Participants will learn team leadership, project management, and career development. 

Congratulations to UMKC SIFE!
