- To remain cognizant of the changing marketplace and continuously changing technology through contact with our Advisory Committees, local businesses, and Career Services. We are continually looking for ways to improve and upgrade our programs so that the skills developed match the needs of area employers.
- To promote the students, programs, and curricula of the Business Administration and Information Technology Department. The success of our Department depends on our ability to train and place graduates from our programs. We are constantly looking for opportunities in our roles as professionals to promote Davis College and the Department.

Mid-Program Assessment
Students enrolled in the Business Administration and Information Technology Department will participate in a skills assessment and portfolio review after completing approximately half of their program. This assesment may consist of an interview, assessment test, artifact review, and/or written assignment. To determine that the student has gained the necessary skills for adequate progression in the program, the interview will allow the student the opportunity to discuss a focus for the remainder of the program.
