Text Box: Continuing education programs provide instruction that does not result in a certificate, diploma, or degree. Instead, the focus is to provide training that will help businesses and individuals develop better workforce skills. The two types of continuing education programs are occupational license renewal and short-term skills training. License renewal programs provide training courses for individuals who are currently employed and are required to keep their license current through continuing educations. Examples are real estate or insurance. Short-term skills training programs are usually one-half to two day courses designed to upgrade skills in areas such as computer technology, human resource management, communication, and customer satisfaction. All of our business training and professional development provided improve job performance, increase productivity, enhances professionalism and job satisfaction, as well as provides continuing education units as required. Having these seminars on-site will prove responsive and adaptable to the business issues, will be facilitated by experienced business professionals, and provide practical and applied learning principles.
