Word processing

Office administration is designed for those who desire to serve the Lord in the office area. Individual class curriculums teach practical skills that will be performed competently for the glory of the Lord, whether serving in a Christian ministry or the secular business world.

The keyboarding, transcription, speedwriting, and accounting skills of students enrolled in office administration are developed, refined, and polished. Training in word processing, information processing, and office procedures is included. Character traits such as courtesy, dependability, punctuality, and integrity are stressed. Students receive a full range of skills in office management procedures necessary for a position in Christian or secular work. Students train on some of the finest business equipment available in the business world today.

Keyboarding Skills: Students who complete keyboarding in high school take a placement exam to determine a course best suited for their skill. Required courses waived by a placement exam must be replaced with other business electives.

Academic Requirements: Students must have at least a “C” in all office administration courses. A minor must be completed.

Academic Program Fee: $90 per semester or $22.50 per payment.
