The concurrent Graduate Diploma in Culture, Communication and Leadership in Canadian Business (CCLCB) is designed to address an unfilled need in post-graduate management education, especially for students arriving in Canada from overseas who might lack the exposure to cultural differences, business practice norms, and vocabulary to effectively interact with and contribute to the businesses they will be engaged with post-graduation. The learning outcomes of the Graduate Diploma emphasize the development of communication, negotiation and presentation skills, as well as provide an understanding of hiring practices and job search strategies in North America. In addition, the Diploma helps to anchor participants’ understanding of the Canadian business landscape with an industry specific course in a chosen area of focus in the second year of the program. A required placement enables students to both apply and reflect upon their learnings and acquire Canadian experience prior to transitioning to full-time employment post-degree.
