OVERVIEW

This is a fast-paced and exciting course covering a wide range of topics. It will provide you with the advanced skills that are required within the business sector. You will work on live case studies that are set by employers and industry experts and develop a strong understanding about the business environment. There will also be fantastic opportunities to network with external companies, organisations and established businesses.
Our expert tutors will teach you how to analyse what makes a business successful and investigate how businesses are organised. You will gain the skills and understanding into how a marketing campaign is developed, as well as looking at how political, legal and social factors affect a business. You will look at how human resources are managed and how to interpret financial statements.
In addition, the course will also focus on your end project which involves planning, coordinating and managing a market stall. You will work in teams to come up with an innovative idea to sell a product within a successful market, allowing you to keep the profits made. You will work closely with the National Market Traders Federation on a designed syllabus to enhance your skills.
You will take part in our work experience programme to enhance your skills. Staff will help you secure a work placement of choice and complete the necessary hours for the course. Work placements can vary and can include multiple roles to provide you with a well-rounded experience within the business sector.
