Technical Certificate

Office Specialist (6101)

You can enter any office with confidence after completing the Office Specialist program. Records management, computer skills, customer service basics, and business math are covered. You’ll have the knowledge and skills needed to become a dependable office systems specialist, general office staff assistant, or support clerk. If you’re already in the workforce, you can improve your skill level and job performance.

This technical certificate is included as an option within the Office Administration degree program. Students may choose to pursue an A.S. or A.A.S. degree and earn technical certificates while completing the requirements for the degree, or pursue one or more certificate programs to develop or upgrade their skills in a particular field. Contact an advisor or counselor to determine the career education path that is best for you.

Students may complete a degree in only one of the three specialty tracks, Office Administration, Medical Office or Office Software Applications. Students who wish to add a second area of specialization after completing a degree should pursue the technical certificate in that area.
