Business Administration Certificate (BAC)
International Business Administration Certificate (IBAC)
International Business Administration Certificate (IBAC)
The International Business Administration certificate (IBAC) is an Edwards School of Buisiness (ESB) program designed to provide pathway programming for international students who are academically gifted, but who do not have demonstrated proficiency in English language skills. The IBAC program allows international students to study business education at St. Peter’s College (an ESB campus) while mastering English language skills and becoming socialized in a new environment. The program incorporates significant student success activities designed to assist students with their transition to studying business in a Canadian University setting.
The advantage of pursuing the International Business Administration Certificate accrues from allowing students to combine their English language instruction with university level business education in a supported setting that deals with issues of transition and culture. In efforts to support student success, the first three terms of this certificate have a focus on English as a second language (ESL) training. ESL training will be provided by St. Peter’s College.
The aim of the International Business Administration Certificate program is to provide students with exposure in four general areas. These are the quantitative and qualitative skills that support business decision making, language skills, some limited exposure to the social sciences at a university level and university and business life skills including exposure the library and computer skills.
