Learner goals and capabilities

 Capilano University's School of Business, renowned for its comprehensive International Readings in International Business course, offers an exceptional opportunity for employers to collaborate with final-year students. These learners are equipped with advanced knowledge in international business practices, financial instruments, and global market strategies. The course focuses on analyzing current international business environments and applying theories to real-world scenarios. Students aim to build critical thinking, independent research skills, and practical problem-solving abilities through this hands-on experience.

Employers are expected to maintain regular communication with the students, provide guidance and necessary project information, and be available for the final presentation of the project. Constructive feedback on the students' work is also encouraged to ensure a fruitful learning experience.
