Small Business Management is a certificate program designed to aid those students who already manage their own companies, are contemplating starting their own businesses, or work for a small business concern. This program will provide basic knowledge in the fields of accounting, marketing, management, and customer service.

These credits may be applied to requirements for an A.A.S. degree in Applied Business or an A.A.S. in Entrepreneurship if a student decides to matriculate into either of those programs.
