E-Commerce Introduction Advancements in technology create new opportunities and change the way organizations do business. This is especially true with the Internet, where its explosive growth and the digital revolution are transforming the global marketplace at an unprecedented pace. As more and more people shop, trade stock, book travel, and recreate on the Web, businesses need to upgrade their traditional practices to virtual processes. From supply side management and customer service to employee benefits and investor relations, the emphasis now is on speed, flexibility, and cost reduction.
Electronic commerce promises dramatic changes in the workforce as well.
Archaic bureaucracies are giving way to flexible business units that redefine job descriptions and traditional management hierarchies. For this new way of doing business, employees and entrepreneurs need to have the education, skills, and information to stay competitive, solve problems, and succeed. The E-Commerce Program is conducted in four separate courses, each of which can be taken separately or in sequence for seven consecutive weeks.
