What it is	You study how to record, organize, and analyze financial information for businesses and organizations. This program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you'll spend time applying what you learn in actual workplaces alongside your courses. It suits people comfortable with numbers and detail who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.	You study core business topics like accounting, human resources, and general business management, all delivered online so you can learn from home at your own pace. This distance format lets you balance study with work or other commitments, unlike classroom-based commerce programs. It suits people who need flexibility, live far from campus, or prefer self-directed learning while earning a business degree.
