The two-year Office Administration Technology program was designed to give graduates the greatest possible employability within the administration field. During year one, students gain a thorough understanding of the skills required to work in the field with courses in Keyboarding, Transcription, Accounting, Computers, and Communications, amongst others. In year two, students focus on four areas of specialization that will prepare them for positions within the highly technical fields of Medical, Dental, Legal and Engineering administration. Students will have the opportunity to plan, supervise and produce work in consultation with numerous community groups and local-area businesses.

This program also has a 4 week work-term to help students gain additional real-world experience and build a strong network.

Employment opportunities exist for graduates at various levels, from an office clerk to an administrative or executive assistant.
