My name is Jack Cheng. I’m a Taiwanese student from Kaohsiung on the Associate of Applied Science degree program at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.  I just finished the “Financial Planning” course and apprenticeship.

“INCOME GREATER THAN DISBURSEMENT” is the major thing in the business world. Indeed, one purpose for any company is “making money.” Obviously a company can’t survive without it. However, just focusing on making money isnít enough. When you’re making money, you will have disbursements (bills, purchase orders, rents, taxes, etc.) that need to be managed carefully.  Poor management of such disbursements result in negative consequences.

In this course I learned the policy about how to handle the financial particles in a company. Then, in the apprenticeship, I put all I learned into a company. That is a good way for me to learn finance. Before I learned it, I thought finance was a complex subject, and I wished I didnít have to touch it. Yet, after this course and apprenticeship, I felt good about it. I realized that the subject of finance isn’t the game of figures, but the flows in a company. If one can manage the flows well, he can manage the finances well.

Now, I have more confidence on how to handle the financial situations that arise in a company, and I have more tools to manage financial particle flow. The subject of finance is no longer a problem for me. I am glad to have this knowledge in my life.

In our current society, our abilities and skills are worth more than ever. Companies desperately look for people to hire who will actually DO what is needed and not just maintain the status quo, which holds up the expansion of the organization. One very important aspect of a person is his efficiency. Itís very simple really; if one worker can complete something in half the amount of time of another, then whom are you going to hire? The efficient one of course.

Now, what if a person isn’t able to comply with orders as quickly as another? Is he doomed to eternal failure? Well, the How To Increase Efficiency In Your Company course enlightens you about a disease called ìDeveloped-Trafficî (Unnecessary and unusual work), which obliterates two-thirds of a companyís efficiency. It gives a very detailed look into all of the different manifestations that Developed-Traffic can take and how to handle them. Upon recognizing the forms of Developed-Traffic, a person can see how to handle and put an end to it. An example of Developed-Traffic is failure to get an order clarified. When a person doesnít understand what needs to be done, he can’t be expected to get it done fast. If the person clarified the order, then it would have gotten done then and there. Knowing of the 51 types of Developed-Traffic, including this one, a fellow’s efficiency will dramatically increase and he’ll soon find himself with plenty of extra time to get even more done.

As a result of doing this course, I have been able to get all of my work done in the office at twice the speed. My statistics in the office have been significantly increasing each week and I find myself with my daily targets and tasks completed well before the day is over. Then I just go find even more work to do in another area of the company that I can handle. By just following and understanding everything gone over in the pages of this course, my worth to the company has gotten nothing but more valuable.

I recommend you do this course, so that your company can grow larger and recognize you for it.

During the “How to Create Want for Your Products through Effective Sales Techniques” apprenticeship, I learned more about why you need to be informed about the product you are selling. I learned that one needs to know the features, the benefits of the product, about the business and owner who you are trying to sell to, as well as knowing about the price and payment options to name a few. It was exciting to do sales, because you only can get “one-shot.” There was no “start over again” or other types of classroom re-tries.  Either you get the customer to buy or you lose him.

Hi, I am Eduardo Santos, a Mexican student from Monclova, Coahuila on the Associate Degree Program at Hubbard College of Administration (HCA) in Los Angeles, CA.

I just finished the How To Get Along With Others course, and I can tell that your life will not be the same after learning this simple, but incredible data!

While doing this course, I realized that the most basic things, like allowing a person to be what he is, are key for having good relationships with all the people that you surround yourself with. And who doesn’t want that?

One thing that I especially liked is “Greatness.” This means that if you learn how to love everyone even though they give you reasons for not loving them, your greatness will increase and you will gain the respect and love of others.

The ARC triangle is another impressive thing. Once you know how the triangle works, you can say goodbye to your bad relationships. This triangle, which stands for Affinity, Reality and Communication, works like magic, because if you put it into practice, you will see the immediate results of it. If you increase one of the points of the triangle, the other two will increase also. Communication is the most important thing that we have.  Without communication, it would almost impossible to have reality and by consequence affinity.

The Tone Scale taught me how to detect what tone level a person is in. This is very helpful, because I think that every one of us has some people in their lives that might hate us or might be antagonistic towards us. Well, if you know the tone scale, you will know exactly how to handle the situation with that person so you can have a better relationship.  Thus, resulting in a happier and more stress-free life.

I liked the How to Evaluate and Predict Human Behavior Course very much. Now, I know how to spot other people’s emotional tone. This is actually very important. I don’t want someone who has low emotional tone to work with me. Why? I want to be with happy people. When working with people who have low emotional tone, they bring me down, or maybe I need to work extra hard just to keep my emotional tone high enough.

Looking back to my past, to what I did and to what other people did, I now know why I did what I did and why they did whatever they did. I know the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation, and it predicts specific correlations between emotional tone and action or behavior. It’s really amazing!!

By knowing this data, not only can I evaluate and predict the behavior of others, but I can also know based on my emotional tone what my behavior is, even when I don’t want to admit it. Finally, itís not hard to communicate with people, as long as, you know their emotional tone.
