Objectifs et capacités de apprenant.es

Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on MBA students from University Canada West to be your student-consultants, in a project-based experience. MBA students will work on one main project over the course of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.

Students in this course recognize that small businesses face unique challenges that can impede productivity and result in costly turnover. In this project, teams of business students with backgrounds in entrepreneurship, human resources, and organizational behaviour will analyze your organization’s structure and management to develop strategies for improvement and continued growth.
