OCN Business Studies
The aim of the OCN NI Level 2 Award Certificate in Skills for Business is to allow learners to develop the knowledge, understanding, and key skills required to work within a business setting. These qualifications provide an engaging, practical, and relevant introduction to the world of business today. OCN qualifications are 100% portfolio, therefore, there are no external examinations and pupils will achieve a GCSE Grade B equivalent if they complete all portfolios under the teachers direction.
Currently, the 4 units studied by pupils in SJBC are:
Unit 1: Understanding Business Structures
This unit will enable the learner to understand how and why a business may be established and the types of business structures.
Unit 2: Business Aims and Objectives
This unit will enable the learner to understand the aims and objectives of a business and how they may be used for business improvement.
Unit 3: Marketing Mix and Competition
This unit will enable the learner to understand the four elements of the marketing mix and how competition impacts on business activities.
Unit 4: Understanding Recruitment and Selection
This unit will enable a learner to understand the stages of the recruitment and selection process, recruitment documentation, methods, and legal control.
