The degree program prepares students to start a new business or to make an existing business more successful. Coursework focuses on the development of broad business and communications skills, plus the specific skills and plans required to succeed as an entrepreneur. If your main goal is to transfer to a four-year school, including earning a B.S. degree in Business Administration, consider completing the AS-T in Business Administration instead.
We project that 15-20 students will graduate with this degree annually.
Program Proposal Attributes
- Certificate of Achievement: 16 or greater semester (or 24 or greater quarter) units (C)

The purpose is to provide current and future small business owners with necessary skills to open or improve their business. There is a projected annual gap of about 17,047 students in the Bay Region and 4,250 students in the East Bay Sub-Region. The program prepares students to open their own business or to improve the effectiveness of an existing business.
