Welcome to Finance!

In the Finance cluster, students choose one of four pathways - Accounting, Corporate Finance, Banking Services, or Insurance. Courses include specific content standards that tell what students should know and be able to do at the end of each course. A foundation course, Business Technology Applications or Business Essentials, is recommended before students enter a pathway.

Course work focuses on technical skills, basic and specialized business concepts, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills, and effective communication. Information is also provided regarding possible credentialing or certification. All courses in the cluster are business and industry certified with equipment and curriculum meeting industry standards.
