Business Systems Technology

 

The Business Systems Technology curriculum emphasizes performance-based competencies, integrating both interpersonal and technological skills. Multiple entry and exit points are provided to accommodate reentry and working students. The curriculum encourages the formation of articulation agreements between secondary and postsecondary schools to facilitate a smooth transition through the instructional process.

The curriculum is based on the IAAP (International Association of Administrative Professionals). Traditional office skills are still emphasized with an increasing emphasis on productivity and accountability. Use of computers and other current technologies is incorporated into the training as well as developing interpersonal and professional skills. By using the combination of traditional office skills and technical skills, our goal is to produce entry-level employees who possess excellent technical skills as well as a solid background in oral and written communications. There are certificate exit points and a diploma with specialty diplomas in the areas of medical and legal.
