BCC Student Comments:
The speech “Competencies for Effective Work and Study” is absolutely excellent and inspiring. Those six rules for success you may think are just common sense, but more than that! Those are the essential secrets that everyone may know but won’t keep following. This lecture really has something. And Jerel Bonner is the kind of speaker that makes people laugh, lead people into deep thought, and enable them to have an epiphany. I’m the beneficiary of the words “You are what you create.” ? —– by Taylor

The lecture “Competencies for Effective Work & Study” is quite fun. It includes six points, among which, the one that impressed me most is ‘continuing to improve yourself’. Indeed, we cannot wait for others to train us or tell us what to do, because it will be too late. We must do it now to seize the chance!
