    COURSE DESCRIPTION

    Legal Environment of Business addresses statutes and regulations affecting


    businesses, families, and individuals. All students will benefit with the
    knowledge of business law as they will eventually assume roles as citizens,
    workers, and consumers in their communities and in society at large.
    Students will get an overview of business law while concentrating on the
    legal aspects of business ownership and management. Legal issues
    addressed include court procedures, contracts, torts, consumer law,
    employment law, environmental law, international law, ethics, and the role of
    the government in business. Students will not only understand the concepts,
    but will also apply their knowledge to situations and defend their actions,
    decisions, and choices. Various forms of technologies will be highlighted to
    expose students to the emerging technologies impacting the business world.
    Professional communication skills and practices, problem-solving, ethical and
    legal issues, and the impact of effective presentation skills are expanded in
    this course to prepare students to be college and career ready. Employability
    skills are integrated into activities, tasks, and projects throughout this course
    to demonstrate skills required by business and industry. Competencies in the
