-
Designed to assist business educators with the implementation of competency-based instruction, these course outlines identify recommended competencies and skill areas for beginning workers in accounting, business data processing, clerical accounting, and recordkeeping occupations. Each outline contains listings of enabling, terminal, and personal employability competencies. Covered in the accounting outline are accounting skill areas, establishing records, business transactions, and payrolls. The following topics are among those included in the sections on business data processing: automated accounting, business calculations, business systems, career exploration, data entry, programming concepts and languages, unit records, computer classifications and hardware, computer operations, and software. Addressed next are various aspects of clerical accounting, including establishing records, calculating machines, checking accounts, communication skills, care and maintenance of office equipment, purchases and sales, reprographics, typewriting, tax reports, and mail processing. Following a discussion of recordkeeping fundamentals, personal and business records and filing are discussed. A final outline provides a survey of data processing, with attention to card input, an overview of computers; business, society, and computers; and programming concepts. (A related guide covering business data processing competencies is available separately--see note.) (MN)
