Retail and Office Services
Albany Campus
This program is designed for students who are interested in working
with others in an office, retail or customer service setting and want
to learn basic, business-related skills. Students learn about customer
service, written and spoken communication, office and computer
skills, budgeting and money management, inventory and ordering,
advertising, basic accounting and business math.
Retail & Office Services students also build skills in problem-solving,
organizing, business and telephone etiquette and working as a team.
They rotate through internships in retail and office locations.
They work hands-on and as a team at the Campus Store and in the
classroom. By gaining experience during class and in the field, students
are well-prepared to get a job and keep it. They benefit both personally
and professionally. Retail & Office Services is a career studies program
for students who want to learn hands-on, at an alternative pace. The
program provides challenging, developmentally appropriate career
prep experiences.
