Technical Baccalaureate in Business Administration
Accounting, management and dealing with clients before you turn eighteen.
The Technical Baccalaureate in Business is for the student who will be working in an office before they finish university, and for the one who will start their own business instead of looking for a job. Accounting from the first year, stock control, payroll, customer service, and a full unit on starting a business.
The final project is not a document: it is a small business the team runs for a term on campus, with a real budget, proper books, and a close-out audited by the programme office.
