OVERVIEW
Open the door to career opportunities when you enroll in HTC’s Business program, an area that includes business, sales and marketing fundamentals, management techniques, and management communications. You will develop skills in critical thinking, decision-making, problem solving, and effective oral and written communication. Training is necessary to take your interpersonal, professional, and team skills to the next level. With preparation as a business analyst, management, or professional sales, you will be able to launch or advance your career in entrepreneurial, corporate, or government sectors. When it comes to your career, training at HTC is good business. We currently offer two year degrees in Business Analyst, Management, and Professional Sales (Business to Business).  If you would like to take additional courses to supplement your current job responsibilities, we also have certificates in Business Management and Professional Sales.

We are currently registering new students into the Business program.  If you would like information about a career in Business and would like to get started by June 1st, 2011, contact Gini Beran at gini.beran@hennepintech.edu.

LABS AND CLASSROOMS
Our labs are built into the instructional delivery so there is practical training as well as theory delivery in the courses.

SUPPLIES/TOOLS
You should have a computer that has a web browser, high speed internet service, and Microsoft Office 2010.  We offer courses both online and face-to-face so you will need a computer to handle many of the requirements of the business courses. 



ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
All students are tested and assessed on basic skills such as reading, writing, and math.  This, we believe, builds a solid foundation for coursework at the college level. Once you schedule your assessment, you will meet with a counselor to review your assessment results and then your major area is assigned.  At that time you will enroll in your coursework and begin your journey to a new career. 

WORK ENVIRONMENT
The work environment is small class lecture and discussion as well as online.  This allows for discussion on issues pertaining to the business curriculum.  Another added feature to the program, students in similar majors are often taking the same courses each semester so this allows you to connect every semester with someone you know.  This allows you the opportunity to develop classroom and online relationships that many times last for the duration of the lifetime of your professional career.
