Guiding Principles

Students are encouraged to elect business and technology courses that lead to twenty-first-century skills and prepare them for an increasingly competitive global society. Over the past several years, there has been a gradual increase in student enrollment in these courses. This increase reflects the growing awareness that the skills and knowledge gained in business and computer classes assist students in obtaining part-time employment and prepare students for academic coursework at the collegiate level. The business courses are strongly recommended for students who plan to major in a business program in college. All courses in this department address Student Learning Expectations 2, 3, 4, and 6.
