Northwestern Polytechnic to add Bachelor of Business Administration program in 2023

Oct 26, 2022 | 3:31 PM

Northwestern Polytechnic has announced that it will begin offering a full Bachelor of Business Administration program in the fall of 2023.

The school recently received approval from the province’s Ministry of Advanced Education to expand to the four-year program.

Previously, students could start the process at NWP but would have to go to another post-secondary institution in order to get their full bachelor’s degree.

In a news release, NWP says the new BBA degree program can be customized to suit different learners.

They say skilled tradespeople can apply trades qualifications towards the credit requirements of a BBA, while students can also ladder into the program from the school’s Business Administration certificate or diploma programs.

A number of business electives from a variety of different subject areas will also be offered under the program, allowing students to direct their BBAtoward their interests and career goals.

They add their BBA program will also meet all prerequisite requirements for those students wanting to continue on toward their Chartered Professional Accountant or Chartered Professional Human Resources designation.
