With Vermont State’s Business and Professional Studies programs, you’ll gain the experience in your field where it matters most — in the real world.

  • Learn in the cockpit, on the mountain, in the shop, or in the office
  • Take part in hands-on courses and internships
  • Earn professional certifications to elevate your credentials
  • Enjoy small classes led by faculty with deep industry experience and connections to help you launch your career

Our graduates are pilots and flight instructors, adventure guides, resort managers, business owners and managers, foresters, mechanics, and more.

“It’s more than just getting a college degree. It’s really building a life for yourself. The professors have so many different connections. They’ll help you get where you want to be.”

Jordan Zach Outdoor Education, Leadership, and Tourism
