"After I graduated I became the Director of Marketing and Public Relations for a successful software company due to the Job Placement assistance at the College. I was able to come in and start in an executive position only because of what I had learned. In the six months I've been working here, we have increased sales by 40% over the previous year."

Career Education in Action

HCA- Blog #7When I first saw the introduction of Hubbard College of Administration, I was pretty amazed that we actually have a school that focused on the application of student’s knowledge.  After each course, we go to a business to do an apprenticeship where we actually apply the data.

For example, I just finished an apprenticeship on the course, “How to Increase Efficiency in Your Company” as part of my career education which I had a chance to work with one of the executives from the publishing organization.  And I worked with one of the executives to spot what he’s actually doing at work that slowed him down in order to pick up the efficiency in performing his job. He’s basically in charge of those who print a booklet and binds them up. The interesting part of doing this with him is that, at the beginning, he thought that there wasn’t really anything that he did that would cause him to be less efficient.  However, once I showed him some of the data from my course, he started to realize, “Oh! No wonder that happened when I do this….”  Anyway, at the end of that day, he was excited about how I’ve helped him, and I’m winning too knowing and seeing how the data that I’ve learned is that powerful and can be used with ease on getting people to get their work done!!

    Very nice Weber :) You are correct, many businesses think they are doing fine, or they think nothing can be done about improving their efficiency!
    I have had similar situations when I went to a business and they told me many times “Oh! You know, I think we are fine!” Then after I was done there were lists of things they want to change, and this could save thousands of dollars.
    This course is one of the cool courses from your Associate Degree, there will be more to come. Let us know how you are doing on those :)
