GCC Offers New Retail Management Certificate
The Valley's massive population growth, projected to continue well into the future, assures an increasing demand for grocery stores, restaurants, and other retail establishments which feature food services, such as malls, department stores and sports venues. Glendale Community College (GCC) has developed a new certificate program to train managers for food service businesses. The Retail Management Certificate is designed to prepare individuals working in the food industry, and related fields, for the management challenges of the future. The curriculum encompasses several business essentials and also emphasizes the skill sets needed for effective management and communication in the work environment. Eleven courses, totaling 33 credits, are required; the major content area involves production and inventory management. Courses include Accounting Principles I, Human Relations in Business, Business Communication, Techniques of Supervision, Merchandising and more.
