Academic leveling helps learners succeed with their business programs by providing foundational knowledge and skills in a broad range of business education topic areas. Academic leveling also provides non-business majors, or learners needing to refresh their knowledge, with the necessary business education fundamentals to complete undergraduate or advanced degrees.

Academic leveling is typically conducted within the first course(s) in the curriculum to assess whether prerequisite requirements have been met and, where appropriate, provide the course work necessary to address any gaps.

Learners must be able to write discussion board posts, short papers, reports, theses, and dissertations at a level commensurate with the standards of the higher education institution.

Academic writing or scholarly writing is nonfiction writing produced as part of academic work. Writing that reports on university research, writing produced by university students, and writing in which scholars analyze culture or propose new theories are all sometimes described as academic writing.

Though the tone, style, content, and organization of academic writing vary across genres and across publication methods, nearly all academic writing shares a relatively formal prose register and frequent reference to other academic work.

As described by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, career readiness is the attainment and demonstration of requisite competencies that broadly prepare college graduates for a successful transition into the workplace.

Once in the workplace, employees need to be able to manage their careers, throughout their lifetime.

Career readiness includes the process to prepare learners of any age with the skills and knowledge they will need to be successful in today's workplace environment.

Learners must be able to relate academic theories with their practical application in today's global workplaces. It is often challenging to find real-world examples and illustrations of these theories that can be readily applied in the classroom.

As described by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), career readiness includes the competency of professionalism: learners must be able to apply what they have learned in the workplace and readily contribute to the organization's mission.

Experiential learning is the process of learning through experience and is more specifically defined as learning through reflection on doing. According to David Kolb (1984), this type of learning can be defined as "the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience. Knowledge results from the combinations of grasping and transforming the experience."

In today's workplaces and higher education situations, simulations provide experiential learning opportunities for employees and students. A simulation allows the learner to learn a new skill, practice that skill, and learn from the results.

The learning hub is OneDay, a multi-episode Interactive Learning eXperience (I-L-X) business simulation.

Developing career ready graduates who can demonstrate they have the soft skills to succeed is a priority consideration for employers, accreditors, and higher education institutions. However, objectively measuring soft skill related learning outcomes can be a challenge.

As described by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), career readiness is the attainment and demonstration of requisite competencies that broadly prepare college graduates for a successful transition into the workplace.

The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) defines career readiness as the attainment and demonstration of requisite competencies that broadly prepare college graduates for a successful transition into the workplace. There is an expectation by employers that colleges and universities prepare graduates for today's workplaces. Similar expectations exist throughout the world.

The definition and competencies provide for development of curriculum and instruction that will close the gap between higher education and the world of work. They lay the foundation for the work necessary to prepare college students at all academic levels for successful entry, re-entry, or advancement within the workforce.

Traditional academic programs that are transitioning to online must have engaging, relevant instructional content. Simply reading material is not sufficient for today's learners.

Online courses also need to engage learners throughout the learning process. Learners do best when they can readily apply what they are learning through online interaction to cement new knowledge.

Using online components as homework assignments can significantly enhance in-person professional development programs so that in-person time can be focused more on application and shared learning.

It is difficult to overestimate the importance of organizational development as it relates to the success of business because it affects every aspect of decision-making. Organizational development is a critical and science-based process that helps organizations build their capacity to change and achieve greater effectiveness by developing, improving, and reinforcing strategies, structures, and processes.

Each day, you must make decisions, and most of them are influenced in some way by your emotions. With a high degree of emotional intelligence, also known as emotional quotient (EQ), in the workplace, a person uses social skills, self-awareness, motivation and self-regulation to acknowledge, comprehend, regulate and reason using the emotions.

By incorporating the different human emotions into the workplace, team members collaborate better, and the workplace it will be a happier environment for everyone.

Emotional intelligence is recognizing and understanding your emotions and those of others. By using emotional understanding, you can make decisions, solve problems, and communicate more effectively.
