In today?s workforce it takes more than a degree or certain skill set to become a valued employee. In fact a recent study showed that employers ranked the following attributes to be the ten most important and desired traits of an employee.

• Work Ethic
• Ability to work with others
• Acceptance of Responsibility
• Ability to Listen
• Oral Communication
• Ability to work in teams
• Job Specific Technical Skills
• Critical Thinking
• Written Communications
• Life Management Skills

OSU Institute of Technology at MidAmerica understands this and, in response, has developed a program that can build those critical skills. The program is designed so that a person can complete the entire program in just on semester or simply take the courses needed.
