I am Elizabeth (Beth) Parham.  I have been teaching business since 2002.  I am also adjunct business professor at CVCC.  I worked in business prior to moving to my teacher career.  I enjoy teaching because of the challenge to continually learning new and ever changing technology and hopefully having a positive impact on young people's lives.

I hold a BS in French and in Business Education from ASU.  I earned MOS 2010 certifications in Word 2010; PowerPoint 2010; Excel 2010; Access 2010.  I am pursuing Microsoft Certified Trainer certification currently. Other Certifications I hold: MOS-Expert Certified in "MS Word 2003", "MS Excel 2003", and "MS PowerPoint 2003"; National Board Certification in 2006 and hold various certifications in academic and business areas:  IC3, Web Design certification, CPS (Certified Professional Secretary)  "Who's Who Among America's Teachers - 2005".

I have a broad range of hobbies and interests including woodcarving, woodturning, drawing, oil painting, sewing, crafts, reading, cooking.
