Our international management content focuses on creating an entrepreneurial and service management culture to suit the fast pace of business in the 21st century. Our customized training plans will help you deal with new challenges and opportunities.
Our offerings range from short, two or three day, focused program modules to longer, two to four week, mini-MBA types of courses. Shorter programs may be delivered anywhere in the world, but for longer programs we prefer to bring participants to Victoria for a more complete, all-round experience.
These programs are designed to:
- enhance your business education
- improve your communication skills
- provide you with a challenging, international and enjoyable learning environment
Students have attended from many countries, including Australia, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Taiwan, Kenya, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, Korea, France, Netherlands, India, Austria and China and have developed lasting friendships from their time together. In addition to internationally recognized business education, students have the opportunity to explore Canada's beautiful west coast. Activities such as wildlife spotting, whale watching and visits to world-famous sites like Butchart Gardens are just some of the numerous activities Victoria has to offer.
