For the second year, the North East Comprehensive School has celebrated Business Day.
This year the school’s Business Department celebrated under the theme ‘Partnering with the community to achieve a greater passion for the study of business.’
The department focused on critical areas of the business syllabus, in so doing resource individuals were selected to conduct interactive sessions with the students.
The day commenced with the proprietor of Prevost Enterprises, Ellsworth Prevost. Prevost spoke on the aspect of being a sole trader; how the business was conceptualized, benefits of the business to the community and the challenges faced by the business. The students were encouraged to be disciplined and to work towards the fulfillment of their goals.
The second presenter of the day was Brian Dequental, the Manager of the Underwriting Department of First Domestic Insurance Company Ltd. Dequental gave a brief history of the organization; he identified the reasons why the organization was established, the types of insurances and the risks the company provides coverage for.
The third presenter was Josephine Dechausay Titre, the Special projects and Communication officer at the AID Bank. Titre deliberated on the following areas: brief history of the organization, reasons for the establishment of such an organization, the structure of the organization, why the organization is a development bank and the services that are provided by the bank.
The fourth presenter for the day was Cecil Joseph, the General Manager of the Dominica Broadcasting Station. Joseph areas of focus were the history of the organization, the reasons for the establishment of such an organization, the structure of the organization, why DBS is a public corporation and the services offered by DBS. During the presentation Mr. Joseph also gave a motivational speech to the students.
The fifth presenter for the day was Rueben Thomas the Manager of Rudolph Thomas and sons Ltd.

To culminate the day’s event, the Honorable Roosevelt Skerrit, Prime Minister and Minister of Finance and Public service addressed the students on the role of the government in the economy. The Honorable Prime Minister had a sincere rapport with the students. The presentation was in the form of a lecture and many questions were forwarded to the Honorable Prime Minister by the students, to which he answered all. Students were motivated to be positive and honest in all their endeavors: he inspired them to be hard working and to make maximum use of the resources that are available to them.
All the presenters did an outstanding job in their delivery and the sessions were collaborative.
The Business Department of the North East Comprehensive School would like to take the opportunity to thank all the presenters as we continue to partner with the community to achieve a greater passion for the study of business.
Hello let NECS news article vive please. This is not a political piece. Just a business day activity. Why everything have to be so political?
Looking for SYMPATHY for damaging Dominicas good name the world over…NO ELECTION WITHOUT ELECTORAL REFORM…Ther is more than enough time for ELECTORAL REFORM.
%, Monfared is not your issue no more? Now is Electoral Reform? ALL YOU blood vessels must burst before the next election. You ALL are no match to the PM. You ALL are just a bunch of POLITICAL JOKERS.
I really do not want my boy and girl hanging around this man. I do trust him, he is not a role model, he has been I denial, he has kept matters of state away from us. No respect for parent where all tis passport fraud and crooks could be debated. I have not found the appropriate words to really described him, but it will soon come.
Now he there hugging students for photo shot, as is he has confessed and found innocent of on going questionable fraud matters affecting the state we need to clarify.
Skerrit, Go to hell,,,,go to hell. Go to hell…and don’t come back.
That’s the sadness of it all the disrespect of the people and student, Skerrit is a professional when it comes to disrespecting my people and he just don’t care whatever others say. Dominicans have accepted that treatment for so long they don’t even know better and that’s what he capitalizes on. It’s time the people realize that Skerrit have to go, because if they want that Island to move forward where everyone will and get a job regardless what party they belong too they have to agree he has to go, they did it in St.Kitts, St.Lucia Korea and a lot more countries, Dominicans have to stand firm .
Good vibes.
But Mr. Skerrit, what are you doing in photo with these nationals? Are you in Dominica boss? Isn’t today Commonwealth Day and Dominica is a member of the 52 commonwealth nations? After all Skerrit, your friend Baroness Scotland is Secretary- General and the way you fought for her to get that post you did not go to the UK to give her support? Shame on you man! Oh, maybe you might be scared of going…I see. http://thecommonwealth.org/commonwealthday
DOCTOR OF DECEPTION!!!
I guess he didn’t want to show his face because Baroness Scotland secretary – general of the Commonwealth can’t help him , she just have the title she was striped of the job someone else is doing the job she is just left with the title because of her behavior which according to Buckingham Place was not appropriate or acceptable they had to deal with her.
SKerrit you sure look out of place in this photo because we are not use to seeing you in picture with groups of nationals that are not criminals and have not been arrested by the fed or other foreign authorities. Oh, I guess your friends we use to see you in photo with like NG Lap Seng, John Ashe (deceased now) Francisco, Theresa, Mofared and others, have all been arrested so you were forced to be in photos with poor people’s children? Boy you really like to be in photo eh. Trust me if I had a family member or friend I would caution them about being in photo with you based on outcomes of others seen in photo with you.
Look at the photo DNO used, I’m pleasantly surprised
Nice going NECS. The students need these activities to aid them in the selection of their careers. Keep it up!
Yes, without Skerrit. Credibility is up for questioning…..Passport probe still hot, too many nefarious company. We want answers.
