The course covers a broad foundation in business in the first year. In the second year, you can specialise in Marketing, Finance, or mainstream Business. The Marketing pathway is recognised by the Chartered Institute of Marketing. You'll study topics such as business planning, marketing principles, financial management, and enterprise. This Level 3 BTEC business qualification is assessed through assignments and projects rather than exams.
You'll need at least four GCSEs at grade 4 or above, including maths and English, or a full Level 2 qualification with a merit profile. You'll finish with a Pearson Edexcel BTEC National Foundation Diploma in Business.
Students will study on the BTEC Foundation Diploma in the 1st year which leads into the Extended Diploma in the 2nd year. The course provides a broad foundation in Business within the 1st year and then offers students the opportunity to specialise in a specific Business pathway in their 2nd year.
