Two instructors, Jenny Parker and Mabel Gehrett, developed the new Business Concepts course to be used in the Business Division at Western Technical College in La Crosse, Wisconsin. This foundational course is designed to help new students learn more about each individual program in business so they can fully commit to their selected program as they get started.
This course explores functions, components, activities, and career paths in key business areas including management, human resources, sales and marketing, and accounting. Business Concepts will expose these new students to the possibilities in business so they can make the best decision for themselves early on, and switch programs, if necessary, without adding time to their educational plan.

I developed the new Business Law course to be used in the Business Management program at Western Technical College. This course is designed to introduce students to basic law terminology while connecting legal concepts to the world of business.
This project has great potential to eliminate unnecessary costs and time to students by offering them an overview of business law with readings, graphics, and videos all located in one convenient place. Students will have an opportunity to learn vocabulary, ethics, case studies, and see the law as it works in business with current events.
While creating this course, I was able to incorporate opportunities for students to learn in different ways. Finding current business cases to add to the readings will help students connect the material to the real world.

This resource was developed for a new Principles of Management course to be used in the Business Management program at Western Technical College. This course is designed to introduce students to the POLC framework as well as basic business concepts. Each concept will be covered in more detail in subsequent classes in the program.
This project has great potential to eliminate unnecessary costs and time to students by offering them an overview of business in general, as well as an overview of what’s to come in the program. Students will learn the basics while preparing to go more in depth as the program progresses.
Overall, this project has been a great experience for us. We hope to hear positive feedback from faculty and students.
