EWhat is a BTEC Tech Award?
Chosen by over a million students every year, BTECs are vocational qualifications. This means that you will develop knowledge and understanding by applying your learning to real small businesses. A BTEC is great if you like working independently.
BTEC Tech Awards are Level 1 and Level 2 qualifications that will complement your GCSEs and provide a first look into the world of Business and Enterprise.
What is Enterprise?
An enterprise is simply another name for a business. You will often come across this word when reading about start-ups and other businesses. Secondly the word enterprise describes the actions of someone who shows initiative by taking a risk and setting up, investing in and running a business. There are lots of famous entrepreneurs!
What will I need to do?
The course is made up of three components (or parts). Components 1 and 2 are internally assessed through individual assignments. Component 3 is externally assessed so you will sit an exam.
Why should I study Enterprise?
Business and Enterprise can lead to lots of different career pathways. You should choose Enterprise if you are creative, analytical, good at solving problems, interested in the business world and have good numeracy skills (you will need these for components 2 and 3!).
