3 Things to Look for in a Business School
Finding the right business school can be challenging, especially in a country as big and diverse as Canada. Students come here from far and wide to study management, business or commerce in some of the world’s most competitive institutions.
Surpassing the Highest-Possible Standards for Management Education
When pursuing post-secondary education in a foreign country, it is crucial to make sure that your school of choice has the credentials that will allow it to be recognized internationally. In the business field, the most competitive accreditations are AACSB (USA), AMBA (United Kingdom) and EQUIS (Europe). Less than 1% of business schools worldwide have achieved the triple-crown of accreditations. In Canada, only two have done so and the Telfer School of Management is proud to be one of them.
Strong Links with Leaders
Another factor to consider is the ability to go beyond the classroom. At the Telfer School, we leverage our close ties with successful companies, key industry associations and vital public-sector organizations to enable our students to learn directly from an array of brilliant executives, entrepreneurs and business owners in Ottawa and beyond. Our hometown is the seat of the Canadian government, hub of high-technology innovation and capital of a G8 country. Ottawa fuels us with an incredibly rich supply of people and resources that we use to increase the quality of our programs and research, and expand the learning and career opportunities of our students. We understand how important it is to be Linked with Leadership.
