Advanced Management/Work Experience is a two-credit course. One credit will be earned for the course and one credit for the job experience. This course is offered to seniors who have an interest in learning about and gaining experience in the fields of management and business management. As part of this program, students will be employed and paid by a management business. Job opportunities will include clothing, department and specialty stores, banks and hotels, as well as various other management occupations. Course activities include "hands-on" experiences in advertising, display, management, sales, and communication. Students are required to sign up for the work experience credit. The campus student store is a hands-on laboratory setting for the students to apply management concepts and will be utilized in the management class instruction. Students may earn 1 credit for every 123 hours of documented supervised work experience. No more than 4 credits (492 hours) may be earned in this program. Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO) standards will be an integral part of this class. Dual credit may be obtained from the Maricopa Community College system for this program at high schools offering this option. Successful completion of the program may qualify students to receive the Mastery of Subject Area Graduation Endorsement. Students are encouraged to work with their program teachers to determine eligibility.
