Business Degree: Executive Direction

My name is Jonathan Turton.  I am from northern California and just finished the How To Increase Efficiency In Your Company course.

j0309621I have wanted to take this course since I started the degree program at Hubbard College of Administration. This course taught me many things to keep production lines flowing smoothly.  It taught me what to do in order to make sure that I’m always productive with my duties and responsibilities.  In addition, I learned how to handle slows and stops in production from an executive and or senior viewpoint, and what to do with employees that don’t understand well and duplicate your directions. This course was definitely worth it and it could help anybody or any business to speed up production!!!

Associate Business Degree: Business Ethics

My name is Tony Grimaldi.  I am an American student at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA. I have just finished the course, Ethics For Business Survival.

To survive as an entrepreneur is one of the most rewarding feelings.  This course goes over the many types ofj0316724situations you’ll have to deal with while running a Business.  For example, have you ever felt like the momentum to start projects has just stopped?  This was one of the things that I had experienced while trying to start a Business.  I finally found the answer within this course.

Rewards and Penalties are what keep motivation alive. I realized a fundamental mistake: I never would reward the person who did the most for us, and I would never penalize the person that wasn’t producing what was needed. Using rewards and penalties can be a fun game to play, as the pay off is far beyond just keeping motivation alive.  Basically, it gets the production up!
This is just one of the benefits I got out of this course! It was really fun and I learned a lot!

Continuing Education: Formulas For Business Success

My name is Robert Turton.  I am a doctor from Santa Maria, CA.  I am a continuing education student at Hubbard College of Administration International, and I just finished the apprenticeship for the Formulas For Business Success course.
I can see the relief on the staff member by identifying the real cause of what happened in her area to cause a down trending situation.  It was not that she was getting lazy and not doing her job.  It had just gotten to the point where she was not able to accomplish all the extra work she had due to increased number of patients seen and to being under-staffed.
I can see how this staff member will now see the true benefit of logging everything she is doing, so she can be accountable.  On the other hand, and most importantly, one will be able to identify any bad situation before itís allowed to get any worse.

Associate Degree: Confidence After Graduation!

Iím Francisco Chavez, a Peruvian student from Lima.  I just completed the internship for the Associate of Applied Science degree in Business Management and Administration at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.  With this completion, I earned my diploma.
Iíve gained a lot of experience doing my internship at GaryMichealsOnline.Corp. During this time, I feel that Iíve really applied all the Administrative Technology learned at the Hubbard College of Administration Int’l and have witnessed its results.
Now that Iím done with my degree program, Iím going to start working with my step-dad. As a result of the internship, weíve started a new family business that is going to be running full-on using LRH Admin Tech. In fact, we already have signed our first international artist contract!
Furthermore, during my internship, I thought of a lot of ideas and formulated some plans to apply later for my own business.
It was very satisfying to be able to help my family create a new business as a way to reward them for their support and help in getting me through my studies here at Hubbard College of Administration International.

Business Degree: Ethics starts at a personal level

Hello, my name is Michael Maatouk.  Iím a Lebanese student from Beirut on the Associate of Applied Science degree at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
I recently completed a course called, ìEthics for Business Survival.î Ethics in essence starts at a personal level and is vital for a person and his organization. Whether it is a businessí profits, the degree of a relationship with someone or even handling things in the house; they all need ethics! This course can cause miracles to happen in the improvement of lives, businesses, relationships with others and especially the management of running a business (whether new or old). It teaches you how to handle personnel with proper ethics in order to improve the statistics (a number or amount compared to an earlier or number of amount), which is a measure of production of your organization. You will witness data, which reveals the real reason (which many people have no clue about) on why statistics crash and businesses fail. Hence, enabling you to revert this dwindling spiral and in turn only cause the best for your business. I recommend this course to whoever wants to increase the profits of his business or generally improve his working life. In the end, successful people and organizations apply this data.

Associate Degree: Errors Decreased By 50%!!

My name is Jaime Chang, and 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.
Time is money. I have a much greater appreciation for this old saying after finishing this course.  What tends to happen in a lot of current organizations is that people end up doing things twice when they could finish all at once. This ìdouble-workî costs a lot of money and valuable production time.
When I arrived at the apprenticeship site, I saw that the company had a communication system, but they werenít using it.  I activated the Three-Basket communication system.  This is a communication system that helps you to organize your papers and or electronic communications. By using the Three-Basket system, you can categorize things: that you have to do (IN Basket), things that need further handling (PENDING), and things that are done and need to be routed (OUT).  This system saves a lot of time, which results in saving money and production time.
The amazing thing is that once you spot the different areas of inefficiency, your production can quickly expand and youíll prosper. What happened at my site was that after we handled the different areas of inefficiency, the production went up and the amount of errors the staff made decreased by 50%! Thatís double the production.  Can you believe that!  I was so surprised when the owner told me that, and I felt so good that I just helped a company to earn more money within a  short time!

Associate Degree: The Foundation of Confidence

My name is Edwin Chuo, and I just finished the ìHow to Get Things Doneî course as part of my Associate in Applied Science degree in Management and Administration at Hubbard College of Administration International.
Before this course, I was afraid to give orders to others.   Therefore, I had a very hard time working with people in the office. When I failed to get the order complied with, I had to do all the work by myself. The boss usually got upset at me especially when I failed to get everything needed done.  This changed during the course.  I have learned how to confront people and handle them despite their counter efforts. It has established a foundation of confidence within me to carry out orders and really get these orders complied with.  This has also made it easy to handle peopleís disobedience in the work place. Finally, I learned about the difference between good control and bad control, and with that I know how to really get the job done and how to handle any difficulties I may encounter in the work place.

Associate Degree: How To Foster Efficiency In Your Company

Associate Degree: How to Foster Efficiency in Your Company
By Jack Cheng, a Taiwanese student from Kaohsiung on the associate degree program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
Efficiency is a major thing in a company; everyone wants to increase it.  It is the thing that every executive, business owner and staff member wants. Why, because efficiency is the way to success. If a person can do things with efficiency, he can do things quicker and better.
In this course, I realized that unnecessary work (or what is referred to as developed traffic or Dev-T) can happen in many different ways.  Also, once you have one of these forms of inefficiency, you will create others.  For example, when information is routed incorrectly, one spends productivity time on it.  Then his production duties become backlogged.  If the backlogs pile up, one can become reasonable on those backlogs, and then more and more Dev-T is produced.
On this course, I learned how to recognize the different types of Dev-T and the way to handle them.

Career Education: How To Find “THE” Problem In Your Business

Career Education: How to Find ìtheî Problem in Your Business
Eiman Rahnama, an Iranian student from Tehran on the Consultant Levels program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.
How does one find out exactly what is causing the company to stay small?  How does one know where to look?  How does one know if the right reason they thought cause?  How long should it take to evaluate a scene in an organization?  I am sure many executives ask these questions from themselves.  I know I did until I completed my Data Series Evaluator’s Course.  This Blog answers such questions.
No matter how big or small the organization or company, there are some “basic” tools that executives need to have.  One of the most “basic” but very important tools is keeping statistics for every product in the company.  By doing so, an executive can “manage by statistics” and see at a glance how well the company is doing compared to last week or few weeks ago.  Then an executive can see which area of his company is lacking or producing less that it should have.  After gathering some data, he is able to go and inspect the area of production and “evaluate” the scene to find out if there are any outpoints.  However, the executive needs to have an “ideal scene” in his mind, meaning he has to imagine how he wants his department to look like.  For example, how organized does he want the area to be?  How many products does he want made per hour?  Therefore, after going to the “existing scene” he can compare the “ideal scene” with the “existing scene” and find out how different or even similar they are.
After doing some research and some investigation, an executive would have an idea what things need to be handled.  Then he needs to dream up a “bright idea” to handle the scene and the situation.  So, if the scene improved that means the “reason” was the right one and the executive did a good investigation of the area and his evaluation was correct.  However, sometimes the scene does not improve.  The executive must immediately change everything back to what it was before and investigate further.  In addition, it should not take an evaluator more that few hours to complete all the above.  Itís not a task that takes days, but rather hours.  I promise you that if anyone takes this course, he or she will be able to find the right situations and handle them right away.  Investigatory tools are important for executives up on the echelons of management.  The higher the position in the company, the more they need to know how to investigate situations.
I am very interested to know how other executives evaluate their companies and how often do they get the result they are hoping for.
