Learner goals and capabilities

This experience is designed for learners who are developing a comprehensive understanding of business operations and strategic planning. Participants will apply their knowledge of functional business areas such as management, marketing, and human resources to real-world projects. They will utilize data analysis, financial reporting, and project management skills to assess and enhance organizational performance. Learners will also explore the influence of organizational culture and external factors on business success, and develop strategies that align with legal, ethical, and economic frameworks.
