This semester students work on a detailed Integrated marketing communications (IMC) plan. They will critically analyze the current environment, company's strengths and weaknesses and a section on how to improve the company's promotional stance or solve a current marketing communication challenge. They will try to develop a Marketing promotional Plan to drive online traffic, customer leads and/or online sales. The students will use marketing research (secondary), strategy, digital promotional tools and marketing best practices to create a report and presentation. They will work in groups of 5 to 7 students but there is a chance to keep groups flexible.

This semester MBA-level students working in groups of 5-6 will apply their knowledge in digital marketing to help your organization develop a digital marketing campaign, develop a strategic digital marketing plan, or solve a current digital marketing challenge. Students explore proven practical examples of strategy selection, implementation, and management and how competitive advantage is created and leveraged over time and distance in the context of rapidly evolving technologies and practices.

Are you experiencing a finance, marketing, operation or HR related challenge in your current business processes? Consult with graduate level MBA students completing this capstone level course at The University of Canada West. The course has a strong analytical, applied, and experiential orientation. Students work in groups of 4-5 to focus on a challenge/opportunity for the business. The students' process - and ultimate deliverable will include a current analysis of the business, problem or opportunity identification, research (as applicable), recommended solutions/strategy with implementation plan, budget and finally, risk identification and mitigation strategies (again, as applicable). The project can be for a Canadian business of any size, however enterprises run by solo-preneurs would probably not provide the necessary scope.
