College Computers

2022 - 2023

This course is recommended for those students who want to be successful in high school, college and career, and to earn 3 college credits through Ulster County Community College for BUS171 Computer Applications in Business: Using the Microsoft Office® suite of business applications for the PC, students learn how computers can aid the business decision‐making process. The course introduces appropriate terminology and concepts using hands‐on training. Applications include word processing, spreadsheets, and presentation software.  

It is essential to those who expect to stand out!

This workshop is designed not only to teach the practical use of Microsoft Office® software, Google applications, and online video editing software, but for users to think critically about how and why to use certain applications to find the best solution to a problem.  Coursework goes far beyond the basic uses of software.  All knowledge is acquired through creative, individualized and realistic projects.  This is your chance to improve yourself and open yourself to much greater opportunities for your life!
