They learn to work with others individually and as part of a team. Students learn to process information: acquire, evaluate, organize, interpret and communicate. Understanding systems is taught, including how to monitor and correct performance. And finally, how to work with a variety of technologies: computers and related equipment, understand the intent and procedures for operation of equipment, and to prevent, identify or solve problems.
