The Skagit Valley Bachelor of Applied Science in Applied Management (BASAM) degree is a two-year, 90-credit career-oriented program that is designed for those who have completed a technical associate degree (AAS-T, AAS or ATA), which typically do not transfer to four-year universities. 

Program Highlights

• Classes meet once a week and participants undertake the bulk of their learning independently or in groups, similar to the way workplace learning happens for a manager.
• The program offers two tracks: general management and health care management.
•  Both tracks start each fall and follow a dedicated application and admission process. For more information on the application steps, click here.
