Good Administrative Skills

Jenifer, So sorry that you were disappointed in the course. As the writer of the course, I was not given a specific direction, ie. covering content for profits vs. non profits. Every course offering is different and I hope that you were able to glean something from my course. Best of luck. Renee Shaffer
