The Administrative Assistant, Office Option, Business Office Technology associate degree program provides students with the skills necessary to excel in the office environment.

Students are encouraged to develop individual areas of interest through elective courses and through part-time and summer employment.
Administrative assistants use technology to originate, access, manage and manipulate information. In addition, they function independently in initiating office communications, accessing and tracking records and information, and problem solving the various details of the day-to-day office operations. As members of management teams, they are able to assume responsibility and work independently to exercise initiative and judgment, and to adapt to new concepts and products.
