The program consists of four separate yet interrelated areas of study in the general areas of marketing, math, financial records, and communications. The primary focus of the program is the introduction of the foundations, of marketing as they relate to the retail and finance industries. This focus includes course work in Introduction to Financial Records, Finance/Marketing Math I, and "hands-on" marketing applications through the main street gift shop, and the Eagles Nest store, DECA activities and various projects throughout the year.

Each student will spend a semester of hands-on experience at the Worcester Credit Union in partnership with this program.
