Program Description If you like being part of decision-making processes, and are interested in organizational culture and interpersonal dynamics, the Business management specialty will appeal to you. Business management is many things - efficient management of people, effective organization of resources, and strategic planning for growth. You could work in an administrative role in a wide range of public and privately owned enterprises, crown corporations and government organizations, or start your own business.
You'll develop knowledge and skills in management, leadership and decision making, interpersonal and organizational behavior, finance and managerial accounting, international business and e-business, entrepreneurship, and retail strategy development and relationship selling.

After two years of managerial (or supervisory) work experience, you can apply for the right to put the highly respected "CIM" designation after your name.
You can also use your Business management specialty diploma for credit in degree programs at the University of Regina's Paul Hill School of Business, University of Saskatchewan's Edwards School of Business or online degree programs at Athabasca University, University Canada West and Husson University/University of Fredericton.
