In Business Studies, you will explore the solutions to business problems that help firms succeed. You will understand the different types of organizations, how they operate, and how they make a profit, alongside gaining a real understanding of how the business world operates. You will also be introduced to a wide range of new and existing business and economic models which will help give you a greater understanding of the business world from a theoretical perspective. By showing a future employer that you understand and appreciate how their operations work, you will be one step closer to achieving a successful career in any organization you choose to work for. In year one you will study three topics: - A Background to Business. - Managers and Leaders. - Decision-making in Marketing, Production, Human Resources, and Finance. In year two you will cover further three topics: - The strategic position of a business. - Choosing a strategic direction to take and how to execute the strategy. - How to manage strategic change. You will also be tested on all the work covered across the two years to gain a full A Level. This is a dynamic, fast-paced, and relevant course that continually focuses on the current business climate and helps students appreciate and understand the theory that is taught.
