the individual who is seeking a career change. Middle level
managers would take this program as one step in advancing to a
higher management position. The program would typically be 240
hours. It would require a mathematical background through algebra.
The graduate of the program should be able to formulate and
solve simple quantitative problems (linear programming and queu-

reduce daita (descriplive statitl.i's); use "canned" computer
programs for analysis; formulate (but not solve) more complex
