The Marketing and Tourism Diploma Program combines a Professional Communication and Marketing diploma
with a Global Tourism diploma to create a dual skill focus, enabling graduates to be very flexible in advancing
their careers.
• The Professional Communication and Marketing (PCM) Diploma introduces students to practical
workplace communication. Areas of focus include product and customer research, writing promotional materials, building relationships with customers, using social media at work, and managing relationships with bosses, coworkers and employees.
• The Global Tourism Diploma (GTD) introduces concepts needed to be a competent member of an
international travel planning team. This program provides a background on tourism service suppliers and their social, cultural and political impact, as well as practical introductions to event planning, tour guiding, tourism promotion and customer service.
Co-op students find work in a tourism-related business once their study term is complete.
The Marketing and Tourism Diploma with Co-op will get you working in Canada. You will gain knowledge and skills that you can apply in your co-op work and then your career.
You can choose to include LCC’s Business Diploma Program (BDP) as part of this Co-op program. The Business Diploma program will provide you with information about Canadian workplace practices, and support you to create a Canadian-style resume.
During your study term, you will complete the required coursework for the PCM and GTD diplomas. You will also take elective courses to improve your English language skills and competencies.
During your work term, you will find a job which allows you to apply your new knowledge and skills. LCC offers free job support services to help co-op students find work.
The number of hours you work will be the same as (not more than) the number of hours in your study term.
In this tutorial, you will review the strengths and weaknesses you noticed during your co-op, and formulate your future career plans.
Administration fee: $180. Registration fee: $250 for new international students and those who transfer to a Co-op from a non-Co-op program. This includes a Letter of Acceptance and any other paperwork needed in order to apply for study and work permits. (Registration fee for Canadian citizens and Permanent Residents: $30). Students who take a break for more than one year are required to take a new English assessment and pay a new registration fee upon return.
