Business Administration
Learn from instructors who have years of real world experience in business. In this program you will better understand the economy and learn best practices of business concepts while developing your ability to work with diverse groups of team members. You will gain effective management, marketing and human resource knowledge, skills and strategies for establishing and implementing a plan.
You can complete classes face-to-face at either campus location or online in different formats (Z-Degree, Competency-Based Education, hybrid, synchronous online, traditional online). The Competency-Based Education (CBE) format allows you to complete courses within a self paced structure that doesn't have defined due dates for completion of class items. You'll also have the opportunity to join the Business Professionals of America (BPA) and travel to national competitions across the country. In the past several years, numerous NICC students have qualified for Business Professionals of America (BPA) national competitions and have placed in the top three.
