Karis Cole
Professor
The Office Administration program at Faith Baptist Bible College taught me the skills that have been essential in my career. I learned both hard (technical) skills and soft (people) skills that are incredibly useful in the workplace. Technical skills such as creating and organizing spreadsheets help me keep track of important information efficiently. At the same time, I developed communication skills that are important for speaking with customers on the phone and interacting well with others.
These skills have not only made me feel more confident at work but have also helped me become a well-rounded employee who can handle different types of tasks. Learning both technical skills and people skills in this program gave me a solid foundation that I use every day in my job.
