Our teachers are currently planning for the safest ways to deliver this course from September. We have been delivering all of our courses online since the outbreak of Coronavirus in March 2020, and we are fully equipped to continue this for as long as is necessary. We hope to be able to deliver the course in a mixed format - blending online lessons with face-to-face teaching – as and when we feel that, on the basis of Government advice and our own risk assessments, it is safe to do so. The ratio of face-to-face teaching in our college buildings to online teaching will vary from course to course, so more specific information will be provided to you at enrolment.

Topics covered can include:

• Enterprise in the business world
• Finance for business
• Promoting a brand
• Retail
• Introducing retail business
• Recruitment and selection
• Verbal and non-verbal communication in business
• Customer relations in business

You will need:

• Four GCSEs at grade 3 or above or an equivalent Level 1 qualification at Merit
• A reference from your previous school/college

All applicants must have an interview to confirm that the course is suitable for them.

The course is assessed throughout the year and with an end-of-course portfolio.
