Associate Degree: Hiring the Right People

Hi, my name is Monica Gonzalez, and I am from Mexico.  I just finished The How To Evaluate and Predict Human Behavior course and apprenticeship.
One thing you learn about on the course is the chart of human evaluation.  This is a chart that assists you in plotting where one is at based on behavioral characteristics displayed by an individual.  Itís very interesting to fully understand the human chart of evaluation and all the characteristics of the Tone Levels.  I understood the importance of having high/up tone people working for you and with you.  And by doing so, one can increase or decrease the success of the business.
Understanding the level of responsibility, communication, and the way people in different tone levels can receive and hand out information is unbelievable! It can help you a lot.  You spot lower toned individuals and this will help you determine what those individuals are capable of with regards to carrying out assignments or level of accountability.
Having all this knowledge will cause me to hire the right people when I start my own business. It is now the ability to surround oneself with the right people that will help you grow and expand.

Business Degree: Increase Efficiency

My name is Jaime Chang.  I just finished the ìHow To Increase Efficiency In Your Companyî apprenticeship on the Associate of Applied Science degree at Hubbard College of Administration International.
I had such a huge win and a lot of fun while doing this apprenticeship. It was somewhat hard in the beginning. However, the company owner gave us clear direction on what she wanted and needed.  She has a bridal shop, and I worked with another student on developing a program for her. With the other studentís help, the program was done perfectly. We got all the information the owner wanted and this helped her a lot on the current marketing she was doing.
From this apprenticeship, I realized that a good program and a well-set plan will obtain the valuable final products (VFPs) both effectively and efficiently.  Creating effective programs is the first step.  It is vital to have this step in before one can even think about organizing the execution of such programs.
I really had a good time doing this.  Not only did I enjoy the experience of the apprenticeship, I have more experience in the fashion industry, which is something I have been interested in. This further leads me towards my personal goal in life. I thank Miranda Hazen, the student that helped me and Caroline, the business owner, for giving me this opportunity to have such a wonderful experience. I can see how this technology helps me apply what Iíve learned on the program to better my life.

Business Degree: Importance of Policy

My name is Jamie Chang. I just finished the ìHow To Make Planning Become An Actualityî apprenticeship on the Associate of Applied Science degree in Business Management and Administration.
It was an honor to work with the company representative, Caroline Hallak and degree student, Miranda Hazen. Caroline is a designer for bridal gowns and Iíve always been interested about fashion. From this apprenticeship I realize how important it is to issue the ìBasic Purposeî as a first policy in a company, because any company wants their brand well known by public. After doing this apprenticeship, I now know how vital the practice of issuing policy to a company is in helping it materialize the ownerís ideas and ultimately reach its goals.

Associate Degree: Planning Can Become Actuality

June 14, 2010
Associate Degree: Planning Can Become Actuality
By Gloria Liu, a Taiwanese student from Taipei on the Associate Degree Program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
From this ìHow to Make Planning Become an Actualityî apprenticeship, I know better how to differentiate the different types of actions (called target types) that have to be considered in achieving a goal. This allows me to plan more carefully so there is no unnecessary action and overlooked actions. All the target types are important and when skillfully assembled and combined, lead the user towards the major target, which is the program goal.
During this apprenticeship, I found out that this is a field I like. I like to plan and turn it into a doable program. In fact, this is what Iím doing all the time in my head. I just need to put my plans in writing and get them executed. When I have something in my head, I can definitely write it down as a program and that makes it easier to carry out than solely thinking of it in oneís head. I can use this for my future business undertaking, which I believe will be a great hpelp. Also, I can apply this same skill for my non-business, personal aspirations. This is how I can make my dreams come true!

Associate Degree: Ethics and Business

Associate Degree: Ethics and Business
My name is Ray Li, a Taiwanese student from Taichung.  Iím studying to earn my Associate of Applied Science Degree Management and Administration degree at Hubbard College of Administration International, and I just finished the ìEthics for Business Survivalî course.
This is a very good course. I learned more about condition formulas that one uses to improve conditions (operating states) and ethics, which consist of rationality toward the highest level of survival for the individual and everyone and everything that he is concerned about.  I learned some of the basics about condition formulas before, but this course gave me a much more detailed perspective on the subject.  Specifically, I learned a wide range of conditions ranging from confusion all the way to power each with its own formula. Using that data, I understand how to keep an organization expanding continually.
Hubbard College of Administration is a self-paced business school that offers an exceptional business administration curriculum, unique learning technology, life-changing apprenticeships and internships, assistance with job placement and a lifetime warranty for students.  I am currently on the ìEthics for Business Survivalî apprenticeship.

Associate Degree: Basic Organization

Basic Organization Success Story
By Jamie Chang, a Taiwanese student from Kaohsiung on the Associate Degree Program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
Running an organization isnít a piece of cake, but if you have the knowledge of it, thereís nothing that can stop you!
Nowadays, there are many organizations running out there, but are they really running? Are they really producing products? In other words, are they really counted as ORGANIZATIONS? Or are they just a group of people who donít know what theyíre really doing?
Completing the Basic Organization course is a huge step for me, and it taught me how to establish an actual organization and how I can train employees to get a lot production.  In fact, I realized that not only does this technology apply to a business, but also to your personal life.  Once your life gets organized, you are ready to rock and roll, and there wonít be any obstacle in your path to success.

An Administration Degree to Manage a Business

As a young entrepreneur I never wanted to find a job and work for a company. I just wanted to own my company. These days I hear that a lot. Someone asks little Timmy what he wants to be when he grows up, “Own my own business.” Everyone says great and just carries a long. Well I realized a few years back that owning your own business is a lot more complicated than that.

I needed to get a Business Administration Degree, or else I was never going to reach my goal of “owning my own business.” Well I’m almost there. I haven’t got my Business Administration Degree yet, but I’m already starting my own business. And on just the start-up I’m very happy I have all of the knowledge I’ve learned so far. I don’t think I would have made it this far without learning how to really run a business.

My theory is if you know how to run a business, then you know the proper way for it to be set-up. And it’s also a whole heck of a lot easier to set it up.

Today’s world is changing, and you’ve got to know what you’re doing just to keep up with the changes that are going on out there. Mark Cuban recently asked on his blog for a good idea for a new product or business that needs his money. Hundreds of people out there have submitted in-the-works ideas, but few have been chosen.

The point is 5 years ago that would have never happened. With the Business Administration Degree that I’m getting from Hubbard College, I feel like I have the ability to survive in this crazy business world.

How I’m Getting an Associate Degree on My Own Schedule

What Makes Hubbard College’s Associate Degree Different from Other Business Administration Degrees?

My experience at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA) has been different in many ways than any prior school I’ve attended: The New York Collective, Hollywood’s MI (Musician’s Institute), you name it. At other schools I registered for each semester and then was burdened by the class schedule: One class at 10:30 another at 1:00 and then one at 6.  And that’s just one day! So I’d end up having too much time to kill between class, usually not very productive time as I’d be on campus, away from my home where I had other things to tend to.

When I started HCA I was happy to find out that they have a self-paced college degree, which you study in a classroom at your own pace. So I could make my own schedule and not be restricted. Here’s how it works: there are 4 periods per day, each about 2 hours long, one in the morning, two in the afternoon and one after dinner. (I currently go for the 2 afternoon periods 1-6pm with a break between for some food) Some others who work all day do the night period after dinner, so they can still get a degree without having to quit work and get a student loan.

So whatever schedule conflicts I have– jury duty, flat tire, meteor shower, etc… I can always put in my time at school. It’s great, the more periods I put in each week, the faster my degree goes. It depends on me, hey that’s novel… Now I’m getting my associate degree at Hubbard College on my own time!

My Hubbard College Of Administration Apprenticeships

I find it helpful that upon completion of each course on my business administration degree I’m immediately put onto an apprenticeship with a working professional in that field. Be it PR, organizational patterns or marketing, I’m introduced to new aspects of that field as well as practice the theories and tools I learn on my course. The apprenticeships also open up the door to more career opportunities and let me work in any given field for a week or two, building my portfolio before even finishing school!

Just recently after finishing my PR course I went to apprentice at a company and ended up learning how to do a formal case study and write press releases. At first when I was told that I’d be interviewing clients, designing and writing a case study and then writing press releases, I was stumped. I didn’t learn that on my course… That’s why I guess there are apprenticeships here. I got to put tools from my course to use when interviewing their clients for the case studies and in interviewing the clients I learned a lot about the retail business.

I came out at the end with a great final product. I was even offered a job there once I complete my associate degree!

Using the Knowledge of a Business Administration Degree to Get Things Done

Being Able to Command Doesn’t Mean You Have to Be the Boss

Have you been to a restaurant or something where the manager just freaks out to the employee for not doing something according to how the manager wants it to go?
Or have you ever seen a housewife abuse her maid for no apparent logical reason?

You don’t get things done well by treating people like animals.

Even though media and TV try to let you believe that all humans are like animals, this is not the reality. Humans are able to think about situations and often enough come to rational solutions how to handle them.

So why is it that some people have a ton of followers and some people can’t even get anything done through their friends?

A lot of the time it’s just defined as an X-factor, someone just has it or not. But I believe you can learn anything.

A few utilities one can keep in mind when you want to get something done through someone else:

•    Have good manners, this consists of communicating in a clear and understanding way and showing that the other person has an importance.

•    Have a reason to actually need the person to do it, and reflect that reason to him so he knows why.

•    Make sure the command has an ethically and morally correct action; else you are risking the person’s perception of right and wrong.

•    Be confident and show it, you must really have your intention on the command. You WANT it done. Not in a forceful way, but in a very strong confidence.

These are actually things you have to just apply to really see how it works; just reading it on my blog and knowing it won’t actually get you anywhere.

As I have pointed out several times, application of the actual learned theory is what makes you capable in this business world today.

In my business administration degree I had communication drills; this actually makes you able to confront people better. It’s just continually training your leadership and ability to get things done.

This has all the knowledge you need to know about communication, what does it consist of and how do you use it correctly?

My favorite course was the sales training, you get about 26 drills that you keep doing until YOU feel comfortable about it. The other communication courses were a lot of fun too, you get to really connect with the other students this way also.

Every entrepreneur has a little insecurity about starting out and getting to command all these people, it takes some responsibility and confront which this training can really boost for you.
