Building A Successful Business Using the Internet
A majority of small business ideas that utilize the Internet fail because they didn't do enough research, didn't have the right kind of content, didn't have a plan that drives business to their site, and didn't know how to analyze their traffic, and the list could go on and on. This ten-session course uses theory and proven practice to assist those who are serious about starting and operating an online business. Using smart tools, but not requiring technical knowledge, the course takes participants step-by-step through all of the stages of developing an online business.

Managing Employee Performance Certificate Program
This is a leadership competency certificate program for new and experienced frontline supervisors. It focuses on developing practical skills in four key areas relating to the successful supervision of an employee’s performance and productivity. The course is delivered over a four-week period of time and consists of (four) half-day modules. The course includes a variety of in-class skill practice opportunities. The spaced-learning format provides participants with a chance to apply what they have learned each week back on the job.
