Learner goals and capabilities

Looking to elevate your organization and bring it to the next level? Bring on students from University Canada West to be your student-consultants to evaluate your organization's business strategy and to propose approaches to improve the firm's market position. Students will work on one main project over the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.

The teams will apply their international and entrepreneurial knowledge as MBA students with critical analyses/strategies/design skills to develop ideas in your organization. The teams will complete an analysis, provide strategic recommendations and practical options, and recommend an action plan appropriate to your business situation in consultation with you.

As a participating organization, you will provide a specific question, business issue/ challenge, or opportunity that will be the focus of the student team review.
