The activity showcased an experiential demonstration of casino table games—baccarat, blackjack, and poker—which are integral parts of their academic lecture. This hands-on approach allowed students to gain practical knowledge and develop essential skills in casino operations within a real-life maritime setting.

The session was further enriched by the expertise of their resource speaker, Spryllete Borbon, a Casino Dice Dealer from Norwegian Cruise Line. She shared valuable industry insights, techniques, and professional experiences, inspiring students to pursue careers in the cruise and leisure industry.

This activity reflects the institution’s dedication to providing quality, immersive, and industry-based training for future professionals in cruise, recreation, and leisure management.

This Christmas, we’re celebrating more than a party—we’re celebrating the journey. The late nights, the challenges, the small wins that kept us going, and the big victories that reminded us why we started. Every step forward tells the story of how far we’ve come. None of it happened alone, and every win—big or small—was earned together. Grateful for the growth, the resilience, and the people who made it possible. JBLMVSI celebrates our wins. 🎄✨
