Abstract

The problem of this study was threefold: 1) Why does a majority of students who commence the two-year secretarial science program at Broward Community College withdraw before graduating? 2) Do graduates differ from discontinuers in the following areas: ( a ) socioeconomic-personal matrices, (b) number and kinds of secondary business courses taken, (c) initial employment and salary upon leaving the College, and (d) present employment and salary? 3) Do graduates or discontinuers who subsequently secure employment do so in the BCC ''community"? How is such employment secured? Recommendations were made for improvement in method and content of courses as well as curricular revision based on data gathered from the respondents and administrators at Broward Community College.
