The
Business and Administration Academy prepares learners
for careers in planning, organizing, directing, and
evaluating business functions essential to efficient
and productive
business operations. Career opportunities are available
in every sector of the economy and require specific
skills in organization, management, customer service,
and communication.
Employees working in the business and
administration services industry focus on preparation
and execution
of business activities; supervision of other employees;
maintenance of facilities, equipment and supplies;
organization of operations and production; utilization
of marketing
functions to ensure success; performance of financial
functions; communications with customers, clients
and others; performance of administrative functions;
and
use of professional services.
The business and administration
services industry is projected to be one of the fastest
growing through
the year 2010. Nearly half of all jobs are in managerial
and professional occupations, and nearly one-fourth
of
all workers are self-employed. The industry is
one of the highest-paying industries. In the next few
years,
many new jobs will be added and many openings will
result
from the need to replace experienced workers who
leave jobs.
