Career Area of the Week:
How about a SECRETARY? SECRETARIES are responsible for various administrative and clerical duties. They organize and maintain paper and electronic files and plan and schedule meetings and appointments. They manage projects, conduct research on the internet and provide information by using the telephone, postal mail, or e-mail. Employers increasingly require SECRETARIES to have knowledge of software applications, such as word processing, spreadsheets and database management. Training for secretaries ranges from high school programs that teach office skills to 1- to 2-year programs in office administration offered by business schools, vo-tec institutes and community colleges. Some skills are learned on the job.
