The majority of that trade is between Canada and the U.S. More than $2.7 billion a day flows over the border crossings in Windsor, Ontario into the U.S. making it a critical trade corridor between those two countries. All of this activity creates job opportunities and this advanced diploma program will equip graduates with the capabilities to thrive in this sector. The program offers intensive multi-semester projects that allow students to select a product, research a country that it could be offered in, build a marketing and business plan to support their business idea.
