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

This 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.

You own a business and you sell your products.  Yet, how do you know that what you’re selling is the right product for the right public?  The first thing thatshould come to mind is to do surveys. So, how do you know if you’re conducting surveying properly?

Recently, while walking down the street, a surveyor stopped me and asked for a survey, so I said ok. The survey questions had nothing to do with the product he was trying to gather information on.  It was pointless and a waste of time for him to even be paid to conduct the activity.

Few people have been properly trained in surveying to know that there’s a technology and an art to doing them right. The survey course will give you the data on how to make up the survey questions to find out what is wanted and needed from publics.  For example, the answer to the right questions will symbolize a picture, which can then be put into a promo piece.

I had a lot of fun doing the surveys, and recommend this course to everyone.

My name is Edwin Chou and I recently finished the Personal Integrity apprenticeship at Hubbard College of Administration International.

What is right? What is wrong? This has been an argument for thousands of years and in every economic climate. From this course and apprenticeship, I know what is right and what is wrong. Moreover, with this knowledge I have the management tools to teach people the correct sense of ethics and morals.

This apprenticeship has given me experience in using tools to help staff overcome past mistakes. The procedure process of completing the tasks on this apprenticeship actually employed exact steps!

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.

I am Eduardo Santos, a student from Mexico, and I just finished the “How to Effectively Handle Work” apprenticeship on the Associate of Applied Science degree in Business Management and Administration at Hubbard College of Administration International.

I really enjoyed this apprenticeship, because I experienced first hand that the technology I just learned has amazing results if you know how to apply correctly.

In this apprenticeship, I went to a very well known company that sells software licenses to improve the efficiency of computers. My main purpose was to help another person increase his efficiency in his work by applying what I learned on my course.

When I got with the employee, I could see that he was having some problems controlling his job efficiently and he had a lot of confusion because of it. I immediately started applying the data from the course. It was amazing to see that by the next day he was more efficient and had handled the confusions he was having! By providing him the data of the “stable datum,” which tells you how to handle any confusion, and with the Affinity-Realty-Communication (ARC), and control handling, the employee really improved. In fact, he was able to accomplish the same amount of work in half the time! This was amazing.
