What You'll Discover:
This course offers an incredible chance to explore a broad range of business subjects. You'll gain essential knowledge and skills that are highly valued in the professional world, preparing you for employment, apprenticeships, or further study on our Level 3 Business (Enterprise and Entrepreneurship) course.

We believe in bringing learning to life! You'll have the unique opportunity to meet and learn from local business owners, managers, and employees from small, medium, and large companies. They'll share real-world insights, showing you how business theory translates into practical success and what it's truly like to work in the dynamic world of business.

Our curriculum covers mandatory units like Business Finance and Marketing (these are your exam units!), alongside other key areas such as Small Business Planning, Working within a Team, and Investigating Customer Service. This broad introduction will not only equip you with vital business understanding but also develop valuable life skills.

This course will also allow the opportunity to resit GCSE Maths and/or English as part of the course to support gaining a C/4 grade.

4 GCSEs at grade D/3 or above including English Language/Welsh (1st Language) and Maths or Successful completion of a relevant Level 1 programme which must include achievement of numeracy and literacy.

At Coleg Cambria we would encourage you to do the very best that you can in your exams. The better your grades the more options you will have, and may result in you gaining entry onto a higher level course.
Get ready for an engaging and hands-on assessment experience! We use a variety of learning activities, from creating vlogs and delivering dynamic presentations to writing assignments. You’ll even get to plan and run a business, participate in team exercises, and develop crucial social skills needed for life beyond college. It’s all about practical experience and collaborative learning!

Completing this course opens up a wide range of business-related job vacancies. Our college Job Shop is here to support you every step of the way, offering assistance with CV development and interview techniques to give you the best possible chance of securing a job, an apprenticeship, or progressing to a Level 3 place within the college.
