V Certs – Business and Enterprise
Business and Enterprise
Studying our Level 1/2 Technical Award in Business and Enterprise will give pupils the core skills and knowledge they’ll need to prepare for an enterprising career. They’ll learn how a business is structured, who stakeholders are and why they’re important, and will gain an understanding of the different areas of a business, from HR and finance to operations and marketing.
This qualification is approved for KS4 Performance Tables in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
V Cert Technical Awards are designed to be delivered over two years. The first year of delivery is entirely dedicated to teaching and learning, with all summative assessments taking place in the final year of study. The Business and Enterprise V Cert Technical Award is assessed by Non-Exam Assessment (60%) and Examined Assessment (40%).
