Welcome!<\/h3>

Welcome to the Learning Commons Quick Start Guide for Business Reports in APA Style.<\/strong><\/p>

When preparing such a report, imagine that you are going to submit it to a company as a consultant or employee. It should be appealing and well-designed. Remember these key points when formatting a report for your business classes:<\/p>

  1. The title page can be designed with the company\u2019s logo. It does not have to strictly follow APA format but should still include all of the regular information \u2013 title, author(s), course code, professor name, and due date.<\/li>
  2. There should be a table of contents and executive summary.<\/li>
  3. The title page, table of contents, and executive summary should not have page numbers. Page numbers should start when the main body of the paper starts.<\/li>
  4. References should be formatted according to the regular APA style.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
