DEGREE IS PERFECT
FIT FOR ALUMNA
S
usan Oucharek has more than 25 years
of information technology and business
experience under her belt, but she wanted
to prepare herself for the future. She turned to her
alma mater and enrolled as a part-time student in
Georgian's Honours Bachelor of Business Administration
(Management and Leadership) program.
"Over the past few years, I've learned that without a
degree, it will be more difficult to find another job if I am
outsourced," she says.
Susan has had a wide variety of responsibilities
throughout her career, including IT business processes
for sales and marketing, IT supply chain systems and
business analytics.
"I'm really enjoying the leadership courses," she says.
"I can relate to the course content and my job allows me
to apply new techniques that I've learned."
Susan generally enrolls in two seven-week condensed
online courses per semester. She says balancing work, life
and school can be hectic, especially as she plans her fall
wedding, but says she loves the flexibility of the program.
