E-Business Administration

Black Issues in Higher Education, Nov 11, 1999

CHICAGO -- The University of Illinois at Chicago College of Business Administration has begun two new e-business/e-commerce education programs intended to address the growing demand by managers and information technology consultants who want to excel in the information economy.

The more intensive of the two programs -- the E-Business/E-Commerce Certificate Program -- is geared primarily toward working, mid-level business executives who are less familiar with the technical aspects of doing business in cyberspace. The 48-hour course will be offered over eight days and includes overviews of advanced Internet technologies and lectures from industry professionals.

The other offering -- the E-Business/E-Commerce Professional Workshop -- is a more hands-on course for information technology experts who want to develop e-business applications and Internet Web sites. This workshop is a 32-hour program.
