BTEC Business (BTEC Level 3 Diploma) For Sixth Formers intent upon starting their own business or entering business management careers in marketing, finance, manufacturing, human resources or general management. Overview BTEC Business is a qualification equivalent to two A levels. It is well respected by both universities and employers alike. You will study 12 units over the course of two years and be assessed entirely through coursework, receiving close support and guidance from your tutors. If you are the type of pupil who is capable of working at an advanced level but feel that you are more likely to achieve your full potential through assignments, rather than timed examinations, then BTEC Business may be of interest to you. This qualification keeps your career options open to the vast range of careers in business and can introduce you to some careers you may not have previously considered, such as sports marketing, events management or starting a business. Approach BTEC pupils are encouraged to develop their research skills, personal business interest and initiative. After an introduction to each assignment by the tutor, pupils are able to work at their own pace, consulting with the tutor step by step. Much use is made of computers and internet research as well as newspapers and textbooks. Targets and guidelines will help you to plan and manage your work effectively. The two year course incorporates three weeks of work experience; two weeks in year one and one week in year two. We will work with you to select placements which are relevant to your particular interests, give you the opportunity to gather information for your assignments and allow you to try out possible career options. Visits to local businesses will also be a feature of the course. BTEC Business is assessed exclusively through coursework and is equivalent to two A levels. Each of your assignments will be marked by one of your tutors. The pass grades for each unit are Pass, Merit and Distinction and the overall pass grades for the qualification range from: D*D* (equivalent to A*A* at A level) to PP (equivalent to EE at A level). UCAS points are awarded accordingly. The BTEC is a pupil-centred, research based qualification consisting of individual pupil assignments. The Business Studies A level course is more textbook based, with greater emphasis on teaching from the front of the class. Both qualifications provide an exciting insight into the business world. Course outline The course specification and unit details can be found on the Edexcel website at: www.edexcel.com Twelve units need to be completed to gain the BTEC Business Diploma (two A level equivalent). The first four units listed below are mandatory. The Business Environment gives pupils the fundamental knowledge of a range of business organisations, and the many factors that shape the nature of organisations operating in an increasingly complex business world. Business Resources develops pupil knowledge of the range of human, physical, technological and financial resources required in an organisation, and how the management of these resources can impact on business performance. Introduction to Marketing gives an understanding of how marketing, research and planning and the marketing mix are used by all organisations. 22 Millfield Sixth Form Courses 2014-2015
