    Foundation Year Programs in Administration Studies

    A foundation year program is designed for individuals who are not prepared to begin an undergraduate program. The foundation year is meant to introduce students to a vast array of subjects and to prepare them for what it takes to complete a four-year degree program.

    What is a foundation year in administration studies? This program focuses on preparing individuals with the skills and knowledge they need to pursue a career as an office assistant or manager. During their course of study, participants may develop communication, intellectual and practical abilities to help them complete a number of complex tasks typical of an administrative environment. Instructors may also assign tasks that are based on real-life industry scenarios and advise students on how best to complete them. Students may be encouraged to conduct peer reviews throughout the program duration.

    Individuals who graduate with a degree in administration studies tend to possess many valuable life skills. In addition to strong administrative skills, graduates are also likely to have admirable communication and enviable organization skills.
