Résultats et livrables attendus

Throughout the Capstone Projects course, students will engage in several key activities to gain course credit and achieve meaningful outcomes for their project. The primary activities include:


Project Analysis and Assessment involves students conducting a thorough analysis of the client's business to identify pain points, challenges, and opportunities. This process includes evaluating business processes, resources, and overall needs to formulate a comprehensive understanding of the client's situation.

Development of Strategic Solutions is based on the analysis, where students develop practical, innovative solutions and strategic recommendations tailored to address the identified issues. They apply academic theories and industry concepts to create actionable plans that align with the client's goals.

Ongoing Communication and Collaboration requires students to maintain regular communication with the client and stakeholders, ensuring that their solutions are refined based on feedback and aligned with the client's evolving needs.


The Deliverables that students will submit to the employers are:


Statement of Work - Proposal will be a detailed proposal (1000-2500 words) outlining the project's scope, objectives, deliverables, and timelines. This document includes an analysis of the business's operational gaps, challenges, and opportunities. The proposal must be approved by both the instructor and the employer. The finalized proposal is submitted after incorporating feedback from the instructor and the client.

Confidentiality Agreement is a signed document that ensures the confidentiality of the client's sensitive information. This agreement is prepared and signed by students by the end of Week 4 and uploaded to the course platform.

Final Project Plan - Written Report will be a comprehensive report (2500-5000 words) that details the students' analysis, proposed solutions, and strategic recommendations. This report includes an evaluation of the challenges faced, methods used for assessment, and actionable recommendations for the client.

Final Project Plan - Presentation will involve creating a presentation (15-20 high-quality slides) summarizing the project from the identification of the challenge to the implementation of the solutions. Students will present this in a 20-minute session followed by a 10-minute Q&A with the client. The presentation showcases their findings and recommendations in a clear and professional manner.

Exemples de projets

We are seeking companies in Canada, preferably in British Columbia and Vancouver, to collaborate on impactful projects across various industries. Our learners are equipped to tackle a range of business challenges, operational gaps, areas of concern, and improvement opportunities. Our learners are equipped to tackle a variety of impactful projects, each aimed at uncovering and addressing business challenges, weaknesses and opportunities.


For example, they can undertake projects focused on business process optimization, where they analyze and improve inefficient workflows or systems within an organization. This might involve streamlining operations, enhancing productivity, or reducing costs by identifying and addressing process bottlenecks.

In the realm of Project Management, students evaluate your existing project management methodologies in comparison with the updated PM tools and trends to propose new solutions or improvements. They might ask you the practices you use and identify weakness areas and process inefficiencies , recommend new methods, or develop project plans and KPI's for a more effective project management.

Another type of project involves market research and competitive analysis. Students conduct in-depth research to uncover market trends, competitive dynamics, and consumer behavior. Through this work, they can identify growth opportunities, emerging threats, or gaps in the market that the business can exploit.

Additionally, learners are adept at crafting detailed marketing strategies. They focus on enhancing brand visibility, engaging target audiences, and driving sales. Projects might involve identifying key pain points in current marketing efforts, exploring new marketing channels, or designing targeted campaigns.

Strategic business planning is another area where students excel. They develop comprehensive business strategies or plans that address specific challenges faced by the company. This could include creating strategic roadmaps, setting achievable goals, and outlining actionable steps to drive business growth.


In each of these projects, students will identify critical business challenges and pain points, explore opportunities for growth and improvement, and provide actionable recommendations that align with the company’s goals and objectives.
