Seneca Polytechnic’s Innovation Work-Integrated Learning (InnWIL) program connects a small and medium-sized enterprise (SMEs) with 5 students eager to develop intrapreneurial skills by tackling real-world challenges. These learners bring a strong foundation in problem-solving, research, and project management, along with experience using design and systems thinking methodologies. Five students are connected with an SME who can provide an authentic business challenge and hands-on learning that fosters innovation. SMEs are expected to engage with learners, guide their efforts through a one-on-one, share relevant information, attend the final presentation virtually, and provide constructive feedback via the Riipen platform.

Our learners bring entrepreneurial thinking, strategic planning, and problem-solving skills to tackle real-world business challenges. They excel in developing innovative solutions, crafting actionable business strategies, and driving growth through marketing, branding, and collaboration. Companies will benefit from adaptable, resourceful professionals ready to lead projects and deliver measurable outcomes.

Seneca Polytechnic invites you to collaborate with our Tourism & Hospitality: Business Development Management course learners. Our students are learning to bring fresh insights to help you optimize your B2B sales development strategy . This hands-on experience allows students to apply their learned skills in a real-world context, while providing you with valuable insights and strategies.

This post-graduate program provides students with a blend of theory, hands-on practical exposure and applied research to benefit business organizations, while allowing the opportunity for students to specialize in their chosen career fields. Projects will be developed by integrating the skills acquired in the program and may involve on-site research and/or third-party industry related projects. Researching and presenting sustainable solutions to business problems are core tenets of this course. The course positions students as business consultants under the guidance of the professor. Students can take on any business-related problem.
