There is No Substitute for Experience.

Champlain’s business courses are built and taught by practitioners who work hand-in-hand with nonprofits, entrepreneurial enterprises and all types of organizations to create learning from actual real-world problems.

What do you love to do?

All business degrees are not created equal. Champlain’s unique program lets you choose two career cluster specialty areas to build on a core business curriculum. There are now 17 different clusters to choose from and by choosing your two favorites, you’ll build a business degree that is uniquely your own.

Our business core provides the tools you’ll need to work in any enterprise, whether it is small, large, for-profit or nonprofit. You’ll learn time-proven business and management skills such as accounting, marketing, financial modeling and organizational behavior as well as more “current” topics such as team leadership, Internet/information technologies, global business environments, project management and creative problem solving.

Right away, in your first business classes, you will be encouraged to learn from experience. And, all of Champlain's business classes are designed to make learning fun. Many are built around entrepreneurial startup business ideas as well as real projects provided by our community’s businesses and nonprofit organizations. Our goal is to help you build the skills and self-confidence to apply your knowledge to real-world internships and then your chosen career. An ideal strategy is to do internships in both of your specialty areas to even further enhance your future career options.

Champlain’s business program is all about working and learning with others as you define your own career path. Choosing your own path doesn’t mean sacrificing the strength that comes from a solid foundation of business and management skills, however. At Champlain College, you get both the career mobility of a well-rounded business education and the flexibility to build entry-level skills that fit your own set of unique interests. We know you’ll be happier if you can develop a career doing what you love to do!
