Administrative Communication
and Services (B.B.A)
Finding Your Niche
When executives are asked which skills they seek
in professional employees, studies report that written and oral communication
skills rank at the top. In fact, employers often judge a person's intelligence
by the way he/she writes and speaks. As professional advance in an organization,
communication skills become even more important. Preparing documents for
communication is also a critical skill as organizations are often represented by
their correspondence and company documents. A degree in Corporate Communication
and Technology helps you gain the competitive edge to find your
niche in the workplace through effective communication, technology, and
administrative skills.

environment. Learning is viewed as a hands-on process as skills are developed

Staying the Course
Students are encouraged to interact with faculty
both in and out of the classroom. Faculty serve as advisors to students in the
Corporate Communication and Technology program, and graduates of the
programs, have rated these services as very helpful. Students may also choose to
participate in
Phi Beta Lambda, an active business student organization
sponsored by CCT faculty. Throughout your program, you will find faculty members
who are accessible and willing to help, computer labs that are state-of-the-art,
and activities such as the Professional Skills Conference that are structured to
provide additional professional experiences outside of the traditional
classroom.
