Five years ago, Itawamba Community College’s Business and Marketing Management Technology Program underwent a significant transformation as it transitioned to an online format. This change was met with enthusiasm from the community, resulting in a significant increase in enrollment. The program, led by program director Jodi McCrimon, has gained national recognition for its excellence, being ranked sixth in the country according to Forbes Advisor.
The program prepares students for careers in sales and marketing by offering a variety of courses in business, marketing, and management. Students also have the opportunity to learn about advertising and internet marketing through specialized classes. Additionally, the program includes hands-on projects such as building a website, writing a business plan, and conducting case studies.
One of the benefits of the online format is that it allows adult students in the community to further their education while balancing other commitments. Graduates from the program have the option to continue their education by pursuing a bachelor’s degree online through universities in the region.
Itawamba Community College has been recognized as one of the top 10 online community colleges in the nation by BestColleges.com, further solidifying its reputation for excellence in online education.
