Together, we developed the new Business Concepts course to be used in the Business Division at Western Technical College. This course is designed to help new students learn more about each individual program in business so they can fully commit to their selected program as they get started. We sometimes see students register for and start a program with very little knowledge or understanding of what they will do in that program or career. Business Concepts will expose these new students to the possibilities in business so they can make the best decision for themselves early on, and switch programs, if necessary, without adding time to their educational plan.
