The Business programs provides students with course options for their chosen career field. Students earning a certificate or AAS degree will enter the workforce ready to meet the needs of the workplace.
This program prepares students for entry-level careers as bookkeepers, payroll clerks, accounting clerks, accounting assistants, and other office support positions. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that employment of bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing clerks will grow 11 percent from 2012 to 2022. As the number of organizations increases and financial regulations become stricter, there will be greater demand for these workers to maintain books and provide accounting services.

The Certificate B in Business Accounting offers essential skills for managing financial records, focusing on bookkeeping, payroll, and introductory accounting practices using up-to-date software.
The estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) is a budget that includes categories of expenses that a student can expect to incur while attending college. The COA does not reflect actual charges. It is an average based on the estimated living costs typical of our region. A student's cost of attendance is composed of all educational expenses that can be included for financial aid purposes that a student may accrue while pursuing their education for the year. A student's financial aid cannot exceed their cost of attendance. Schools are required to provide a fuller picture of what it may cost students to pursue their degree, not just what they will owe in tuition/fees and books/supplies. For a more detailed breakdown of information regarding tuition, fees, and supplies, visit our Estimated Cost Sheets.
