Designed for those students with no prior accounting or computerized accounting experience who desire to acquire the fundamental skills necessary for an entry-level bookkeeping position in today's workforce.
Successful completion of the Bookkeeping Technician Certificate of Achievement will provide students with the minimum essential skills in accounting, computerized accounting, business communication, business information systems, and microcomputer spreadsheet software which are in demand in today's dynamic workforce.
Based on a review of the data provided in Item #5 (Enrollment and Complete Projections) of the Bookkeeping Technician Narrative attached, most of the classes included in the proposed Bookkeeping Technician Certificate of Achievement have had enrollments increase between the 16-17 and 17-18 academic years. With the current and forecasted demand for entry-level bookkeepers, this certificate should prove to be very desirable and enrollments should continue to increase. In an effort to even further increase the enrollments, and ultimately increase completions of this Certificate, it is believed that offering one section of Acct 7 (Basic Business Bookkeeping) each semester, instead of only once a year, will provide students with the opportunity to complete the Bookkeeping Technician Certificate of Achievement within two semesters – start to finish. Increasing completions of all certificates and degrees has become significantly more important as the new Student Success Funding Formula demonstrates. (see attached Narrative Supporting documents)
