The Business Skills Certificate provides opportunities for students to complete basic study in business with a concentration in a selected career skills area. The program is designed to provide students with timely and valuable employment skills in demand by employers.

Students may complete the program in one year, depending on the exact sequence of courses chosen or take longer if they wish. Courses are offered day, evening or online. Some courses are not offered every semester. All students must complete the core requirements below, and then complete at least an additional 15-credit concentration in their selected career skills area. With proper planning and advisement, students may be able to apply most of the credits earned towards an Associate’s degree in Business.
