Innovative Business Game for Raiffeisenlandesbank OÖ: CRF Students Bring Career Profiles to Life
How do you make the complex profession of retail banking tangible for students? Four students from the Bachelor's degree program in Controlling, Accounting & Financial Management (CRF) found a creative solution during a corporate project by developing an interactive business game for Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich.
As part of their practical corporate project at the FH OÖ (University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria) Campus Steyr, Klara Gudeljevic, Lara-Sophie Krammer, Franziska Mijatovic, and Lina Kobilica designed a tailor-made business game. The goal of this cooperation with Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich is to make the role of a retail customer advisor directly accessible and experiential. The format is specifically aimed at graduating classes of vocational high schools (BHS) and interactively conveys the tasks, challenges, and development opportunities that await them in retail banking.
The business game offers students realistic decision-making scenarios and exciting insights into everyday work life. This playfully promotes specialist knowledge and consulting skills while actively supporting young talents in their career orientation.
For the student team, the project provided the ideal opportunity to practically apply theoretical course content, implement their own ideas, and gain valuable experience working alongside a renowned corporate partner. Special thanks for the successful collaboration go to FH supervisor Andre Gramlich as well as the contacts at RLB OÖ: Eva Kislinger, Sandra Kehrer, Lisa Luckeneder, and Tünde Botykai. The resulting business game will make an important contribution in the future to introducing students to the diverse career opportunities at Raiffeisen Oberösterreich.
