Office Administration Program Description The Office Administration program prepares you to work in an automated office environment. You'll develop basic office skills and gain computer skills including word processing, spreadsheets, databases, and microcomputer operating systems. Several applications (advanced word processing, desktop publishing and integrated packages) also can be studied in depth.

The program accommodates students with different levels of training and experience. Courses provide initial, advanced and refresher education and will help you achieve professional recognition and move ahead in your career. The program also provides opportunities for specialized training.

Students who complete the recommended sequence of courses are eligible to take the Administrative/Information Processing Specialist (AIPS) or the Certified Professional Secretary (CPS) exams administered by the Institute for Certification of the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP).

A two-year program leads to an associate of applied science degree. Technical certificates and career development certificates also are available. An associate of science degree is offered on selected campuses.

The availability of degrees varies from campus to campus. For more information, contact your nearest Ivy Tech campus.
