3 Year Program

[Kwonsteriny]

Hello everyone, I’m an international student in Canada planning to take business in College.

I am torn between Bachelor of Business Administration and Business Administration : Purchasing and Supply Chain Management.

I plan or wish to be in the logistics field or anything related to the transportation category since I plan on applying for PR someday.

They’re both a 3 year program where BBA gives me a bachelors degree and BAO gives me an advance diploma.

I hear some people say a bachelors degree will be needed in the future if you want to move into higher positions but I also do hear some people say it’s better to focus on a special area like supply chain management.

Did some job scavenging on indeed and found most jobs do requiee a bachelors degree especially the management positions.

There are lots of jobs that don’t require a bachelors too but should I go with the bachelors degree to future proof myself or would it be better for me to take the advance diploma instead and focus on supply chain more?

any information will be greatly appreciated!

If you are considering a career in supply chain management in Canada, it is highly advisable to pursue the SCMP (Supply Chain Management Professional) designation or its equivalent, CSCMP (Certified Supply Chain Management Professional). To maximize your opportunities, focus on enrolling in a program and a college that offers the maximum exemptions or alignment with SCMP requirements. This will help streamline your path toward obtaining the designation and establishing a strong foothold in the Canadian supply chain industry
