Course summary

Do you imagine your future as self-employed or running your own business, as a Business Accountant, a teacher, an analyst or perhaps in a managerial position at Deutsche Bank? If so, Business Studies may be the subject for you. Business Studies will provide you the tools and information required to understand how businesses are led and managed to ensure success. The OCR Technicals course is very similar to Business A-level as you will learn about important business considerations including employment law, financial budgeting and accounting and the impact of economic instability. You will understand the legal, financial, ethical and resource constraints under which a business must operate and how these can affect business behaviour. You will explore ways in which businesses respond to changes in their economic, social and technological environment and the necessity for a business to plan. You will appreciate the influence different stakeholders can have on a business, and you will learn how to assess business performance. The course is a great grounding for University or Apprenticeships.
