Careers In Business (CIB)
October 2024
Students have been working on their communication skills during September and into October. Their first project was using team and conversation skills to design and plan the order of a new CareerTEC shirt. They did a great job and once the final decision has been made, we will advertise on the CIB Facebook page, CareerTEC’s website, and our local school.
Another project was a to complete a college, trade, or military business proposal. They chose a one of the three they wanted to go to upon graduating high school and researched 20-25 different metrics about that institution to educate themselves. Then, they created a business proposal and provided this information to their parents for review. It’s a great way to utilize new communication skills with real world applications.
They are also writing different types of business messages such as: letters showing appreciation, apologies, expressing sympathy, creating memos, announcements, and making claims to name a few.
Students will also learn to plan and deliver different types of business presentations. One project will be to envision where they want to be in 10 years. They will present about their career, where they would like to live, financial situation, housing, vacations, and everything in between. Again, communication skills that are relevant to them and about them.
The latter part of October we begin business math and personal finance which is typically a class favorite. Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
