"When I started out, I was an eccentric artist with no connections, no business savvy, and like most artists in my industry, I didn't have much affinity for the business side of fashion-just a burning desire to create an effect with my work. Then I was introduced to Hubbard Management Technology and using Hubbard PR and Marketing principles my company grew 500 percent in six years. It is now being a multimillion-dollar company."

Associate Degree:

I am Jack Cheng, a Taiwanese student from Kaohsiung on the Associate of Applied Science degree in Business Management and Administration at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.  I just finished the ìPublic Relationsî course.
In this modern society, Public Relations (PR) becomes a common word, but What does PR mean? Who should use PR? Where does PR apply? When should PR be used? It may seem that there are a thousand answers to these questions. However, this course answered ALL OF THEM! This course contains an organized, systematic and applicable description, which makes the complex subject ñ PR become easier to understand.
Before I took this course, I thought PR was just used in a large company or by rich men, not by the normal person like myself. After reading this course, my viewpoint completely changed. I just realized that PR should be applied to anyone. This is an information age. The competition in a multitude of ways can attack a company. How do you handle that? Using PR technology will help make your company well known on your terms.
In this course, I cleared a lot of false ideas and fixed ideas I had about PR. Now, I have a much better understanding on this subject. This is not a difficult subject, and I recommend that you come study it.  Doing so will give you the confidence I have on the subject. It also helped me increase my ability to handle my life, and I feel great about that.

Associate Degree: Public Relations, The Big Picture

I am Bassam El Houssami, a Lebanese student from Beirut, Lebanon on the Associate Degree Program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
Public Relations or also known as ìPRî has been misused throughout the years due to insufficient data about its full scope and purpose. Everyone knows what ìPRî stands for, but what does it really mean? PR is ìEffective cause well demonstrated.î In short, PR is publicizing effective causes that you have done to society or people. Doing so will cause an organization or individual to have good PR. These days, PR is sometimes conceived as only how you walk, how you talk, how you dress, etc. This is incidental to the ìEffective cause well demonstrated.î
In history, renowned opinion leaders have used PR to influence and mold public opinion either to idealize them or to degrade others. It is still being used today to fund wars, raise money for charity, destroy organizations or launch a new organization and improve the image of an existing organization or person. It is a PR world.
While doing the ìPublic Relationsî course here at the Hubbard College of Administration, I learned a wider scope of application of PR; specifically, it can be used for an individual, a family or an organization. Reading Effective Public Relations gave me a lot of reality on how PR has developed from its early stages to what PR is known as today. This book presented some of the campaigns executed by major corporations and indicated what was effective and what failed. The book was a compilation of important data about PR and its use.
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 ìMarketingî course.

Associate Degree: Policy apprenticeship

By: Jonathan Turton.  A student on the degree program at Hubbard College of Administration International.
I just completed my policy apprenticeship. I really liked this apprenticeship, because it was pretty straight forward. I was able to successfully and accurately put in policy for a dental office. The policy solved the problem of wasting five minutes between the shift of a dental hygienist and a dentist.  Putting all this together in time and money will save the dental practice $10,000 in production per year. Now that this is solved, the staff will be more efficient and prepared for their duties.

My Associate Degree Internship: More Than Just Business

HCAI’m just wrapping up a 200-hour internship, which will conclude my Associate of Applied Science in Business Administration Degree. When I started the associate degree program in July, I knew I’d be going into a company, using the administrative tools I have learned, and putting order into organizations as in prior apprenticeships. The Hubbard College of Administration staff really helped me find a great location for the internship. I told the internship supervisor that I’d like to have an internship site in an art related field.  I was set up with an audio post-production facility in Burbank, California. The company, Juniper Post, does sound design, mixing and recording for film and television.  It is an Emmy Award winning company.

I worked there for over a month managing current programs. I would never have gotten this experience at any other career college.

If it’s experience that executives look for in hiring staff, then you certainly get it here in your career education.

Career Education can be BIG FUN

Blog 37 imageA lot of people can start yawning when they hear words “STUDY” and “College Degree.” They associate study with something boring, uninteresting, with time spent in classrooms “listening” to a teacher , looking out the window and thinking it is so nice outside and “What am I doing here?” I thought the same way before I came to Hubbard College of Administration .You know, studying here has been a big discovery for me, Career Education can be BIG FUN!

At Hubbard College of Administration, you never just sit in the classroom and read a book or write essays, your course program is made in such way that you always do theory – practice, theory – practice. Read – go and practice! Complete your course, go to the business site and do your project! Do you think we have time to be bored? :-) . NO!

We have some classrooms for theory and for practice, so when you read or do written assignments you are in the silent room. And when you need to do a practice you go to a special practice classroom where you will not find “silence”. In fact, it can be very noisy, especially when some students do Training Drills from a course “How to Get Things Done.” It is one of the first courses in the Associate Degree and one of my favorite ones.  After these drills my intention and my ability to get things done increased so much! In my former job (and in my life) I preferred to do all the work by myself rather than to get other people do their jobs. I had a big problem to get things done and it was one of the reasons why I was so overburdened in my position. This course helped me solve this problem, it was a big win for me.

For more than one year I have studied here, I never was bored from my career education. I love study !

A College Degree that Really Matters

Blog 36 imageFive years ago I graduated from a Russian University in Moscow. I got a college degree as an environmental engineer. But soon after graduating, I started to ask myself, “Can I really work as an engineer? Do I have enough knowledge and experience to start working in this sphere?” Unfortunately, my answers to these questions were “NO.” After 5 years in the university, I had no idea how to apply that data which I “got” a diploma for. I was in confusion. I had a lot of problems finding a  job. At that time I had the idea that I needed another education which would give me tools for business and life, not just a piece of paper named a “diploma.” Now I am a student at Hubbard College of Administration and very close to finishing my Associate Degree. And this program is exactly what I wanted!

In this college degree it is quite remarkable that there are apprenticeships after almost every course you do. You cannot say, “I don’t know” or, “I am unable to apply the knowledge gotten!”  It is impossible, as you have to demonstrate it in the apprenticeships every time! :-) .

The study method used here is so great that every student KNOWS what he learned and IS ABLE TO APPLY and has lots of perspectives in their life regarding the data.

In some months, I am going back to my country. I am very confident in my future, I have my goal in life and I have management tools which will help me reach success in my life. Now, that is a career education.
