AEC | LCA.70 | AEC in Business Management

The Business management program (AEC) is designed for students interested in all aspects of business management and sales, either of a commercial establishment or a company.

Business management technicians are responsible for managing a business or supervising a sales team. This Business Management course was therefore conceived to teach students the main responsibilities of a professional in the field, including managing sales personnel, setting and meeting sales objectives, promoting and marketing products and services, and providing customer service.

Students will therefore have optimal preparation when entering the job market.
