Program Requirements Narrative

The International Business certificate will prepare students to work within a global economy in the fields of Import/Export, Logistics and Supply Chain and related fields. The four courses in this Certificate of Achievement stack up to the two-year General Business degree, so students will have already met the requirements of four of the courses in the two-year General Business degree when they complete this stand-alone Certificate of Achievement.

Palomar College submitted the appropriate LMI from the COE. The COE recommends proceeding with developing a program because 1) entry-level wages for most Logistics and Supply Chain Management Occupations are above the living wage for San Diego County and 2) a large supply gap exists.

Resubmitted with COE report for supply chain. As discussed in the April Dean's meeting, while this program is technically a new certificate, this is really more of a program modification. We are removing three competing A.S. degrees and four large-unit certificates and creating emphasis areas within the general business A.S. degree with stackable, 12-unit certificates. Additionally, the largest concern surrounding the LMI is the large supply within the region. While it looks like Palomar is adding to the supply, we are removing seven programs. The strategic rationale for this program is to: 1) simplify offerings 2) require fewer credits for completion 3) create stackable certificates within the A.S. degree 4) update curriculum where appropriate
