About business administration
Every business needs skilled administrators. Without people who know how to produce and manage everyday office documentation and administrative tasks, business would grind to a halt. Administrators work in a wide range of offices including accounting, banking, manufacturing, education, health, and in central and local government agencies.
Good administration officers will have skills in the following areas:
- Time management and the ability to prioritise tasks
- Communication and listening
- Decision-making
- Problem-solving
- Basic computer programmes.
Equip yourself with these key administrative, clerical and core IT skills that are in demand all over the world.
