The retail buying course is but one of the various courses that are part of the mid/man- agement curriculum at TVCC Midmanagement students also take courses in business areas such as selling, advertising, retail management, marketing, credit and collections, book keeping, and personnel super vision and leads to an asso ciate of science degree. The middle management area is defined as starting one level above the first line supervisor up to those reporting to the principal functional and staff executives in a corporation. The supply and quality of po tential middle managers has been a consistent and growing concern to the retail industry. Businessmen are evidencing alarm at what appears to be a shrinking supply of appropria tely trained potential middle managers in a situation of in creasing deman. Part of this shortage stems from the fact that four year colleges and graduate schools of business are attempting to train students for top management positions in industry. The logic of the com munity college to provide mid dle management education for less than the executive level Page Seven seems sound. The mid-management curri culum at TVCC is designed to prepare students for employ ment in the retail, wholesale, and service field. Specifically the program attempts to prepare students for eventual promotion into supervisory positions in distribution facilities. Many positions as assistant mana gers, store buyers, department heads, and junior executives are available. On the job training is an important supplement to class room instruction in the mid management program. Stu dents working for cooperating business firms as part-time Daid emdovees receive colleee credits for their jobs and are able to earn a good partoftheir expenses. Local business employees and managers are encouraged to attend these courses in mid management both for what they can bring to the class from their own experiences and for what they can learn. They may register for an audit which may excuse them from responsi bility for tests and carries no grade. In a recent personnel supervision class, several su pervisors and union members combined ideas and experiences with regular students. The re sult was a benefit to everyone involved, said instructor, Larry Link.
