Business Degree: Actually Create An Organization

Hello my name is Jonathan. I am studying to earn my degree in business management and administration, and I just finished Basic Organization apprenticeship.

In this apprenticeship, I was able to help a dental practice by creating an Organizing Board. An Organizing Board is a form of infrastructure that can be designed and implemented in any company regardless of industry or size.

The dental practice is now more productive. Now all of the staff is able to refer to the Organizing Board to clearPieces of the puzzle any confusions on their duties or even to explain to someone the flow of the dental practice including the flow of routing patients. This Organizating Board will also allow for the staff to know exactly what they are responsible for, how they take a role in the organization and who to refer to when in need of something.

In doing this apprenticeship, I was also able to further understand the cycles that a dental office goes through. I had a great time in helping the practice and in doing this apprenticeship!

Associate Degree: Practical Experience

My name is Josh.  I’m a degree student at HCA, and I just completed the Survey apprenticeship.

j0283063Surveying can be seen so often.  Most companies are after the same thing; what are our customers thinking and saying?I think we’ve al done a survey for someone before wether at the mall, at home on the phone, etc.  I remember taking one once.   The surveyor told me that he was collecting the opinions from people who had been to their shops. He wanted to know why did people choose their product rather than others’.

The survey questions didn’t really get valid opinions, because the questions weren’t created properly.  This course teaches the key pints of surveying.  It elaborates how to create valid survey questions, who should you ask them and how to use survey results for different activities such as PR campaign.  This course gave me the confidence to get valuable data from the public and use it to help a business.

Effective Managers: Effective Students

Hello.  My name is Tiffany, and I just enrolled at HCA. My first course is called the Basic Study Manual.

j0236531I can’t remember ever using a dictionary so often.  I found out that there is so much more valuable information in using a dictionary properly, as opposed to quickly passing by the definition of a word.

By the process of clearing up the definition of a word, you’ll have a complete understanding of the word, and the concept of what you’re studying will be much more easier to remember and to use it in a correct place.

Sometimes we feel that we try our best in studying, but cannot gain so much result in the end. This course ends that frustration!  I can use the study skills learned in this course for my daily life and to do better in studying any subject in the future.

Business Degree, Organization For Production

My name is Saleem.  I finished the Basic Organization apprenticeship as part of earning my business management degree.

This apprenticeship is great for anyone who wants to bring sanity and organization to his or her company. I was most impressed with the way itComm filingbrought the theory of organization to reality, and instead of just having it in your head, you can have it in plain sight for everyone to see!

Done properly, the tools of organization help you create the proper products that you want to produce and what should be produced by every staff member in the company, whether the company is composed of 3 or 50 staff members.

To tell you the truth, these tools are fundamental for any organization to turn success into a daily achievement.

Business Management: Sales, Closing Techniques

Wesley here.  I recently wrote about the great experience I had on the Public Relations apprenticeship, as part of my business degree.  I just finished my Sales apprenticeship, and wanted to tell you about it.

In the beginning I was a little bit afraid that no one would want to buy the product I was selling, because it’s expensive compared with other similar products from other companies. j0289893

Yet, after I finished the research of the product, I realized I was wrong, because most other products aren’t similar. This company really cares about the balance of your body and what ingredients can cause the best result.

So, now I understand a key point in sales: Sell the product that can really help your customer or help your customer by offering them a useful and valuable product.  That’s why my sales were so successful. I made people understand and then they agreed with the product, which made them want to buy it.  Whenever the clients hesitated, I used the closing techniques learned in the course to reinforce the intention for them to think of why they wanted this product.

It’s an amazing experience to have done this course and to sell the real product!  I really learned a lot.

Business Degree: Surveys, Key To Success

My name is Alex.  I’m on the Business Management degree program at HCA, and I recently finished an apprenticeship on the Surveys course.

Pieces of the puzzleThis apprenticeship gave me a ton of experience in the field of surveying.  Seriously, I feel like I know and can do so much with surveys that I’ll never have a worry when doing them. The power of this apprenticeship really hit me on the second section, which involved making a particular survey that would emanate human emotion.  The purpose of this is to get as many done as possible until you’ve received a response value over 50% out of all people asked.

I got to do these surveys with a composer. I did my Financial Planning apprenticeship for this individual, and was aiming to help him learn more about his targeted public.  Basically, to find out what they’d want from a composer in regards to recording orchestral instruments for recording musicians.

Once this survey and a second survey were completed, I felt like I was on a whole new tier of this technology. The course gave me the data, and the apprenticeship really had me bringing its application to fruition. I got sufficient answers for both surveys and now the individual has the data he needs in order to share his service within that public in such a way that they’ll be open to listening to the message.

It happens each and every day. Companies think of new and interesting ways to get their public to hear them and buy their products. Some of these companies do this successfully; you can take Apple as an example. I’m sure they take their customer’s thoughts and opinions very seriously and that has contributed to their huge success.

Surveys open the door to the public.  You get to hear their thoughts, ideas, concepts, etc. It just makes sense that potential customers will be more willing to respond to an advertisement or even let it catch their eye if it had what they’ve been worrying about, which is accompanied by your product/service that serves as a solution or improvement.

Associate Degree: Experience=Certainty

My name is Brad.  I completed the How to Get Along With Others course at HCA, as a requirement in earning my business management degree.

j0236531I continued to be surprised with the “light bulb” experiences I have. I keep learning things that I thought I already knew. The principles taught in this course are spot on! The most important thing in my life is my relationships with others, and I’m confident that those relationships will improve, as I apply what I have learned. In fact, they already have!

Master Consultant: Qualifications

My name is Hiro.  I just completed my Qualification Sectary mini hat for my Consulting Level II!

Yes!!! This course is basically about the function of the head of any qualification division in a company.  It trains you to ensure, as the head of thej0284915area, to establish and maintain that the staff members of the organization are producing whatever they supposed to produce and at the level of quality needed.  Before, I had some simple questions about the organization. What can I do with those people who don’t produce as much as they’re supposed to? Or, how to make every single employee in the organization wanting their products, so they’ll start producing more with a passion for what they do.

I didn’t know the answers for these questions. I knew that if the morale of the employees in the organization is high then they’ll produce very well, but I didn’t know how to make their morale high, or keep it high. This course was amazing in that it explained to me everything that I needed to know about area of qualifications.  I now know the anatomy and method of how to handle the above situations. Also, I know how to run a qualifications division and what its true purpose and functions are.

I became much more powerful and more cause as a future executive, because of this course.
