BTEC Business Studies at Bosworth Independent College offers an alternative route to university.
The BTEC course allows learners to specialise and study a broad range of subjects within Business Studies, while achieving a full level 3 qualification equivalent to three full A-Levels.
One of the main benefits of this course is alternative methods of assessment, including use of real-life case studies, presentations and regular written coursework. The BTEC course also includes three written timed assessments, which operate in a significantly different way from the traditional linear exams within A-Levels. The style of studying on BTEC encourages students to use technology to prepare reports, presentations or undertake role-play to simulate the working business world. Bosworth BTEC students are well prepared for university life; assignments with regular deadlines equip students with skills such as time management as well as development of vocabulary, language and effective communication.
The BTEC course includes modules such as:
* Exploring Business,
* Personal and Business Finance,
* Developing a Marketing Campaign,
* Managing an Event,
* Recruitment and Selection,
* Principles of Management,
* Business Decision Making.
The range of units presents the opportunity for students to study business in depth, while also offering students a wide span of options for university choices.
