Welcome recruits to the Business Barracks, I will provide you with an exploratory foundation in business office administration and support curriculum and knowledge. Through integrated instructional activities, recruits will have opportunities to apply employability skills and to learn about possible career options in the Business cluster. Recruits will complete many hands-on activities to build a strong foundation in integrated software applications and standard office procedures. The curriculum will help recruits to use computers effectively in their life, while providing a connection of computer science and business concepts. This year I look forward to "Training Your Brains for Higher Order Thinking." In order to accomplish my objective, you will undergo three different levels of training (basic, intermediate and advance). Your training will come in different forms; discussions, online activities, demonstrations, projects, assignments, etc. I expect each of you to give 110% during your eighteen week training course because "your output is determined by your input."

You will participate in the following missions:

Computer Applications training:
Recruits will show mastery of computer application software that encompasses word processing, spreadsheet and desktop publishing. Skills will be demonstrated by creating projects. Recruits will design and create their own check using Microsoft Publisher. Recruits will create graphs and charts to display their typing test results from their keyboarding training. Recruits will utilize web base games and activities to learn vital information to prepare for periodic evaluations.

Business Foundations: Financial Literacy training:
Recruits will examine and apply the basics of economics and personal finance. Recruits will learn money skills they will need for life and money management basics. Recruits will take virtual field trips and complete at home training to reinforce knowledge. Recruits will apply their money management skills by engaging in a culminating project "Bank Day." VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

21st Century Skills:
Recruits will demonstrate employability skills such as working in a team, problem solving and organizational skills.
