Students wanting training in the office and
technology areas have several options at Iowa Lakes.
The Secretarial Specialist program is a one-year
diploma program. It may be further expanded into the
Administrative Assistant program in Emmetsburg.
You gain computer, keyboarding and accounting skills
in order to enter businesses as secretaries,
receptionist and office assistants. You can also use
these courses to improve existing skills if you are
already employed.
Word processing and spreadsheet courses prepare you
for Microsoft Office Specialist Certification
testing. Basic accounting and computerized
accounting develop your skills for duties in the
areas of accounting or bookkeeping.
You may choose to enter the work force upon
completion of the program or continue into the
Administrative Assistant Associate in Science degree
-- or any other Iowa Lakes program that utilizes
these courses in its requirements. |
