The Business program is for students interested in pursuing careers in marketing and business administration/management. Courses provide an overview of career opportunities, which are available in every sector of the economy and requires individuals working in marketing and business administration/management to become familiar with topics including sales, marketing, customer service, telecommunications, research, media, organization, time management, customer service, communication, and effective use of technology.

The program also helps students develop skills currently noted by business and industry as lacking in today’s workforce: teamwork, communication, professionalism, and positive work ethic. Students will gain workplace skills to reach their full potential and ensure they graduate college and career-ready. Members of the business and industry community visit as guest speakers to talk about different careers and the skills necessary for the opportunity.
