COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The purpose of this course is to help students enhance skills in writing and presenting in a business and
professional environment. Students will read, evaluate, and write samples of business writing, including:
letters, emails, memos, and reports, as well as cover letters and resumes. Students will also use technology
and multimedia to design a variety of presentations for the professional world, including PowerPoints,
brochures, and video presentations, compiling a portfolio of work that can ideally be used in the real world
once they graduate. The last unit of the class will be a mock simulation of both applying to and interviewing
for a student’s desired job of choice.
