Lead students through the MOS exam objectives, ensuring they master advanced functions like data analysis in Excel, professional formatting in Word, and high-impact presentations in PowerPoint.
* Practical Application:
Create assignments that mirror real-world business scenarios, such as developing a budget spreadsheet, drafting a formal business proposal, or creating a corporate pitch deck.
* Student Mentorship:
Support a diverse student population—including adult learners and first-generation college students—in developing "soft skills" like professional communication and time management.

Required Qualifications

* Education:

A Bachelor’s degree in Business, Information Systems, or a related field is required.

* Experience:

2+ years of experience in a business environment using the Microsoft Office Suite at an advanced level. Previous teaching or corporate training experience is highly preferred.
