如果我是高三的学生，时间比较紧，如何参赛？

高三的同学可以在毕业前抓住机会优化自己的商科留学申请履历。因为时间比较紧，建议高三的同学征得所在校的同意后，争取在本校组队，与相熟的同学一起学习效率较高。此外，我们建议高三同学直接选择一对一（赛队）教练辅导，以节约自己宝贵的时间。

报名的操作流程是怎样的？

1.先从以下三个途径进入“注册”报名：

报名缴费时，是否必须选择“成为职拓会员”？

IveyHSCC大赛虽依托”职拓e站”公众号的支持，但“成为职拓会员”并非必选项。不过，职拓会员是同学们申请教练辅导的前提。同时职拓e站是国内唯一的跨30+行业、职能、专题的微型职业案例体验平台，可以帮助参赛的同学更快、更好地进入角色，熟悉案例学习的思路和模式。

如何提交参赛提案？一个赛队谁有权提交提案？如果过了截止日期，还可以提交吗？

提交参赛提案有两个方法。
1.在IveyHSCC大赛的官网中登录个人账户，选择“提交参赛提案”的按钮; 或
2.在“职拓e站” 中 “我的IveyHSCC”下面的“我的资料”处有提交参赛提案的按钮。以赛队形式参赛的小组，只有“队长”身份的账号才能提交正式的参赛提案。错过了提案提交截止日期，参赛选手可以联系大赛的组委会，申请在后台提交。不过，组委会会视情况决定是否接受该延后的提交申请。

我可以个人名义参赛吗？是否必须组队才能参赛？

初赛阶段，可以个人名义参赛。进入复赛必须以赛队的名义参加。

怎样组队？如何成为队长?

在“职拓e站”公众号中“我的IveyHSCC”页有"组队"功能。同学们可以与任何已协商好的同学组队，但必须在同一赛区、同一龄组。
邀请他人组队：选中想要邀请的同学，发出邀请码。此时，发起的同学在赛队中的身份被默认为“队长”。接受他人的组队邀请：输入对方发送的邀请码，点击提交，即组队成功。此时，接受邀请的学生在赛队中的身份为“队员"。
注意，一旦接受他人的组队邀请，即不可再邀请他人或再接受其它赛队的邀请了。所以要慎重。如果主动向他人发出组队邀请码,那么你将被默认为“队长"。一旦他人接受你的邀请，你需要负责邀请本赛队其它的组员。小组最低人数为3人，最高人数为4人。

如果组队错误，怎么撤销？怎么更换队长？

想撤出某个赛队，需拨打400-074-0520电话，由工作人协助从现有的赛队中撤出。队长的身份，可在组队成功后有一次调整的机会。

可以和陌生人组队吗？如果我在熟人圈中找不到其它队友,该怎么办？

可以和不认识的人组队。在“职拓e站”公众号上，“我的IveyHSCC”页有在线组队功能。同学们可以与不认识的人组队，但必须在同一赛区, 同一年龄组。
找不到其它队友时，同学们可以尝试进入“职拓e站”公众号底部的--“校友圈”，搜寻同一赛区中未组队的学生，尝试与他们交流，进行组队。

如何找到有案例教学经验的教练，教练可以为我做什么？

职拓平台为职拓会员提供“找教练”和“带我入行”的匹配功能。同学们可以在“找教练”中找到具有案例教学经验的教练，点击头像，查看教练的个人空间，并向教练发出“带我入行”的邀请。教练可以帮助参赛队员更熟练地掌握案例分析的方法，引导小组讨论，完善案例提案的格式，明确团队分工，提高团队配合度，以便在合理的时间内快速提高参赛选手的任务完成质量，从而获得更高的进入复赛的机会。

一对一教练可以确保我获奖吗？

教练辅导不能确保任何人获奖。但可以确保同学们在有限的时间内获得最优的学习体验，更快地掌握案例学习的方法，案例分析的技巧，提案演示的效果，以及团队配合的效率。而这些都是进入复赛和决赛，最终获奖的必要条件。
