 The
AAS degree in Office Administration includes a combination of courses and
practical experiences concerning communication skills, accounting, generally
accepted office procedures, and in-depth knowledge of most of the commonly used
software in today’s modern offices including Microsoft Office and QuickBooks.
There are two free elective courses in the program, and students are encouraged
to select from accounting, paralegal, or computer science courses. Graduates in
this program are prepared to work as office administrators, administrative
assistants, secretaries, word processors, accounting assistants, bookkeepers,
cashiers, tellers, and in other related occupations depending on the area of
specialization.
Students can obtain an Administrative Assistant one-year certificate and/or a
two-year Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in Office Administration.
Students may choose to begin in the Administrative Assistant Certificate because
most certificate programs are THEA exempt. However, students are still asked to
take a reading, writing, and math test. These tests are given by the Testing
Center at WCJC.
If a student successfully completes the Administrative Assistant Certificate and
decides to continue with the Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in Office
Administration, the certificate courses will transfer to the AAS degree.
