BUSINESS STUDIES CERTIFICATE PROGRAM

This program is designed to meet the needs of students seeking a broad background in all aspects of business administration, rather than a specialization in one particular area.

Students will develop skills in accounting, communication, microcomputers, and an awareness of management, marketing, economics, business law and more.

Courses may also be credited towards other college certificates and diplomas.

To complete this certificate, students must successfully complete 12 courses, 8 compulsory core courses and 4 in the major subject (or 3 in the major subject, plus 1 elective).
