    Becoming a Sales Person – Online Professional Development Course

    Every business, product, and organization depends on one essential function: sales. Without sales, businesses cannot grow, employees cannot be hired, and products cannot reach customers. This 2-credit online course introduces educators to the fundamentals of sales and explores how communication, psychology, trust, and decision-making shape the modern business world — equipping teachers to guide students toward a realistic, empowering understanding of what a career in sales actually looks like.

    Rather than relying on pressure or persuasion tactics, this course reframes sales around three core principles: Communicate clearly and listen carefully, Connect by building trust and understanding customer needs, and Create Value by helping people solve problems and make confident decisions. Teachers will explore how people make decisions, examine different sales careers and compensation models, and develop practical communication skills that transfer to nearly every profession — from business and entrepreneurship to education and healthcare.

  • Becoming A Lawyer (2 Grad Credits)

    $351.00
    Course Title: Becoming a Lawyer Number of Credits: 2 Credits (30 hours) Objectives LEARN CONCEPT 1: Law is a system that shapes everyday life. The legal system affects housing, business, education, family life, and individual rights. Lawyers operate within this system to solve problems, protect people, and navigate complex rules that impact society daily. LEARN CONCEPT 2: Lawyers are professional problem-solvers—not just courtroom performers. Most legal work happens through reading, writing, researching, and advising. Strong lawyers understand details, anticipate risks, and use logic to guide decisions long before a case ever reaches court. LEARN CONCEPT 3: Logic, reading, and argumentation are core legal skills. The foundation of law is the ability to analyze information, identify flaws in reasoning, and construct persuasive arguments. These skills are valuable not only in law, but in any career. LEARN CONCEPT 4: You can begin building legal skills now. Students do not need to wait for law school to start developing relevant skills. Reading deeply, writing clearly, debating respectfully, and thinking critically are all accessible starting points for a future in law.  

    Course Overview

    From Student to Legal Thinker

    Most people see law from the outside—as rules or court cases. Lawyers see the structure behind those rules: how laws are written, interpreted, challenged, and applied. This course helps students shift from simply following rules to understanding how legal systems work. Students will examine real-world legal scenarios, learn how arguments are constructed, and explore how lawyers influence outcomes that affect individuals, businesses, and entire communities. By the end of the course, students will understand both the opportunities and responsibilities of a career in law.

    2. Understand the mindset Office Administrators.
    3. Learn the steps for becoming an Effective Office Administrator
       Course Overview What is an Office Administrator? At its core, an Office Administrator is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of an organization. They organize systems, support staff, coordinate activities, and ensure that everything runs efficiently. But this definition, while accurate, is incomplete. An Office Administrator is not simply someone who answers emails or arranges files. They are:
    • A coordinator who connects people and processes 
    • A planner who thinks ahead and prevents problems 
    • A communicator who ensures information flows clearly 
    • A problem-solver who steps in when things begin to break down 
    • A stabilizing force in a fast-moving environment 
    If an organization were a machine, the Office Administrator would be the engine that keeps everything running smoothly — not always visible, but absolutely essential.   Course Outline Chapter 1, The Invisible Engine Behind an Organization Chapter 2, The Pathway of becoming an Office Administrator Chapter 3, Inside the role of an Office Administrator Chapter 4, Getting Started Chapter 5, The Power of Detail Chapter 6, Professional Growth   Description of Activities

LEARN CONCEPT 2: There are multiple pathways into healthcare, each requiring dedication and preparation. Becoming a physician, nurse, or dentist follows different educational paths, but all require discipline, long-term commitment, and early preparation. This course helps students understand those pathways clearly. LEARN CONCEPT 3: Skill, training, and responsibility directly impact human lives. Healthcare professionals make decisions that can save or endanger lives. Proper training, attention to detail, and communication are not optional—they are essential to safe and effective care.

    Becoming a Manager – Online Professional Development Course

    Every organization — from classrooms to corporations — depends on someone who can turn ideas into action, guide a team through pressure, and keep people moving toward a shared goal. This 2-credit online course introduces educators to the real, everyday work of management: planning, organizing, leading, and decision-making. Teachers will walk away equipped to help students see management not as a distant title, but as a practical, learnable skill set they can start building today.

    Course Description

    This course takes participants through six chapters that build a complete picture of what it means to manage people, projects, and outcomes. Beginning with the foundations of the managerial role, the course moves through the core functions of management (planning, organizing, leading, controlling), the personal skills that separate good managers from great ones (communication, emotional intelligence, decision-making), and the real career pathway from entry-level employee to leadership position. The course closes with an applied reflection on leadership in action and the consequences — good and bad — of management decisions.

    Educators will finish the course ready to bring classroom-ready activities to their students, including team-based leadership exercises where students rotate through the role of "manager" to build firsthand insight into the position.

    Target Audience

    This course is designed for K-12 educators — particularly those teaching career and technical education, business, or elective courses — who want to introduce students to management and leadership as a viable, accessible career pathway.

  • Becoming A Principal (1 Grad Credits)

    $271.00
    Course Title: BECOMING A SCHOOL PRINCIPAL  Price: $271 Number of Credits: 2 Credits (30 hours) Objectives LEARN CONCEPT 1: A principal’s most important job is not managing, it is leading. Management keeps things running. Leadership makes things better. A great principal does not simply maintain systems or enforce rules; they create a vision for what a school can become and inspire students, teachers, and families to work toward it together. LEARN CONCEPT 2: School culture is the most powerful force inside any school building. Culture shapes how students feel when they walk through the doors each morning. In strong schools, students feel safe, teachers feel supported, and families feel welcomed. Principals influence school culture more than anyone else because their leadership sets the emotional tone for the entire community. LEARN CONCEPT 3: Data is a school leader’s compass, not their judge. Attendance rates, test scores, graduation rates, discipline reports, and teacher retention all tell a story about a school. Effective principals use data with curiosity and compassion to guide improvement, solve problems, and ensure every student receives the support they need. LEARN CONCEPT 4: The best principals were almost always strong teachers first. School leadership begins with understanding teaching and learning at a deep level. Principals who have experienced the challenges and rewards of the classroom are better equipped to support teachers, connect with students, and make informed instructional decisions.  

    Course Overview

    Every school needs strong leadership to help students succeed, teachers grow, and communities thrive. This course introduces students to the world of educational leadership and explores what principals actually do each day behind the scenes.

In reality, principals are responsible for creating school culture, supporting teachers, solving problems, managing operations, communicating with families, and leading long-term school improvement efforts. Students will explore real-world leadership scenarios, learn how schools operate, and examine the educational pathways required to become a principal. By the end of this course, students will better understand both the opportunities and responsibilities that come with leading a school community.
