Program description - May 2026

Business is evolving. Are you uncertain about the exact career path you would like to follow? If your answer is ‘yes’, then the two-year Business diploma program is perfect for you, as it is designed to expose students to many different disciplines, ensuring diverse career opportunities. The Business program provides a broad education encompassing all functional areas of business, including business accounting, finance, marketing, sales, operations and human resources management. Today's world is full of business opportunities; graduates of this program will have work-ready skills that will enable them to operate in multiple business departments, return to their family business or start their own business venture. They will also be able to bridge into the third year of the Business Administration - Management program, complete an 8-month post-graduate certificate, or bridge into the third year of the BBA - International Business Management degree program (subject to a 70% program average). You can start the Business program in the fall, winter or spring, at multiple campuses, and choose the delivery format that best suits your circumstances and lifestyle - full-time during the day, part-time in the evening, or online, and complete it in as little as 16 months (full-time or online). All graduates of the program will qualify to obtain the C.I.M. (Certified in Management) designation offered by Chartered Managers Canada. Applicants holding the McDonald's Management Development Program designation may apply for credit toward this program.
