Bachelor of Business Administration
for Trades Management
Careers in the trades often lead to managerial and/or ownership positions,
yet few trades people have the opportunity to academically prepare themselves
with the skills required to own and operate their own business. This program
provides individuals with the ability to leverage their prior learning (Trade
Certificate) and to augment prior learning with the fundamentals of business
management theories and practices. The objective is to produce graduate students
who are equipped to successfully function as managers and owners of a trade
related business in today’s rapidly changing global environment.
Entrance requirements
1. Provincial Certificate of Qualification or inter-provincial certificate of
qualification in a trade.
2. One year full-time work experience in the field after gaining qualification above.
3. Prerequisites for ENGL 105.
4. Prerequisites for BUS 149.
