Entrepreneurial Skills and SME/SMO Management Certificate

This certificate develops entrepreneurial skills and the competencies needed to manage a small or medium-sized enterprise or organization. It covers the concepts underlying entrepreneurship, from opportunity identification through business management practice, financing and day-to-day operations. The 30-credit undergraduate programme, equivalent to about ten 3-credit courses, is delivered 100% online through Universite TELUQ, Quebec's distance-education university, allowing self-paced study through readings, assignments and tutor support rather than in-person lectures, with admission on a rolling basis rather than fixed intake dates. It suits current or aspiring entrepreneurs and SME/SMO managers seeking a standalone credential or a foundation before further undergraduate study in business administration, and requires working knowledge of college-level mathematics on entry. The self-paced, distance format lets students apply coursework directly to a business they are already running or planning to launch.
