Wor-Wic's business programs are designed to prepare individuals for employment in a variety of positions through an associate of applied science degree program in business management and an associate of arts business transfer program. Two certificate options are also available, in general business and small business management.

The business management degree program is designed to prepare graduates for employment in the field of business. Organizations need supervisors and middle managers who are knowledgeable about organizational structure. These individuals could be self-employed entrepreneurs establishing their own businesses or employed in positions where they are responsible for staff or function groups within operating organizations. This program addresses these general and career needs with a variety of specialized courses. Some students enroll in courses to upgrade their current job skills while others enter this program seeking skills to obtain employment in business occupations.

The business transfer degree program is designed for students who want to transfer to Salisbury University, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore or another four-year college or university and work toward a bachelor's degree in some area of business, such as accounting, banking, finance, economics, human resource management, marketing or management. To ensure maximum transferability, students should familiarize themselves with the program requirements of the institution to which they plan to transfer.

The general business certificate option is designed for students seeking entry-level positions in commercial, non-profit or governmental organizations that require a broad understanding of business operations. The foundation of business knowledge is supplemented to include studies in communication skills and an orientation to microcomputers. This option is also valuable for people who have an interest in self-employment.

The small business management certificate offers the entrepreneurial student formal instruction on starting and operating a small business. This certificate option is designed to be completed in one year and culminates in students preparing their own formal business plan that can be presented to lenders and other supporters of the business venture.
