Student success in college requires well developed learning skills and attitudes (such as being able to work independently,
participate in a team, be well-organized, develop good work habits, and show initiative). These skills are as important as prior academic
achievement. Applicants should have thoroughly developed these skills and attitudes before beginning their college programs.

PRE-PROGRAMS
Pre-programs offer students the opportunity to take courses for career exploration or to qualify for further study. With small class sizes, dedicated
teachers and built-in advising and supports, the pre-programs help students strengthen their academic skills and prepare for further coursework.
OUR PROGRAM
The Pre-Business program provides opportunities for students to develop skills for admission to programs in the School of Business at George Brown College
or other post-secondary institutions. This program provides a challenging learning environment and exposure to a broad cross-section of business fields.
This unique program offers a strong introduction to business, marketing and general education plus foundation courses in math and English. On completion
of the program, students will be well-prepared to develop their career plans, or to continue on to further education at the School of Business.
Note: Successful completion of this program is not a guarantee of admission to any other program. Students can apply for admission into semester 2 of
certain Business programs.
PART-TIME STUDY OPTIONS
Some of the courses in this program are offered during evenings and weekends through Continuing Education. See coned.georgebrown.ca
YOUR CAREER
In just two semesters, this program can prepare you academically for entry into a number of three-year Business Administration programs. Successful
