Companies have long been the heart of Quebec’s economy. Behind commercial and social entrepreneurship (including the sharing economy, circular economy, etc.), there are entrepreneurs and buyers operating in an increasingly complex globalized world. This program, whose pedagogy is based in coaching, helps students understand and practice the skills they will need to be successful in business:
- Designing their approach
- Getting to know the company’s ecosystem and the cultural codes of entrepreneurship in Quebec
- Understanding international business
The College offers a program for future entrepreneurs that will help them develop expertise in various fields. In fact, in the last semester, students will benefit from a pre-incubator-type program. Throughout their studies, students will have access to mentoring and support to help them realize their ideas and prepare to start up or take over a company when they graduate.
The program provides students with the skills they will need for the following activities related to the profession:
- Creating a viable business plan and model
- Finding funding
- Communicating in the language of the target audience
- Identifying constraints and opportunities
- Selecting consultants and partners
- Demonstrating sales and negotiation skills
- Using their emotional intelligence, instinct, and resilience
- Using efficient and effective technological tools to support the company project and business model
