With a family relying on her income, she can t afford to quit work and go back to school. But with a couple decades before retirement, she s looking for more options down the road. For men and women in similar positions, the Selland College of Applied Technology at Boise State University is introducing a new evening legal administrative assistant program. This new program is designed for busy professionals who want new career options. The program is completed in two semesters.
Students attend class two evenings per week.
And because it s offered at night, students can keep their day job while they train for a new career. I m excited about this new format, said Teri Harbacheck, the lead instructor for the program. It s perfect for receptionists, secretaries and administrative assistants who love fast-paced work and want to take their careers to the next level. Harbacheck has been teaching in the program for several years. After working 20 years in legal offices herself, Harbacheck knows her field.
