You’ll get started with hands-on introductory courses that provide an overview of everything from recruitment and record keeping to communications and management. Then, you’ll dive deeper into what it takes to maintain an organization’s competitive edge — exploring microeconomic theory, organizational behaviour, and the interrelationship between entrepreneurship, ethics, and social responsibility.
