Pearson BTEC Higher National qualifications take a student-centred approach to the curriculum. There is a flexible, unit-based structure that focuses on developing the practical, interpersonal and thinking skills the student will need to succeed in employment and higher education. <br/><br/>The Level 4 units lay the foundations of learning by providing a broad introduction to business and different business functions. Students will develop an understanding of the key concepts in leadership & management that can be applied to any business setting. Student will have the opportunity to refine their practical skills gained through research, independent study, directed study and workplace scenarios.

Students will be able to develop and apply their own ideas to their studies, to deal with uncertainty and complexity, to explore solutions, demonstrate critical evaluation and use both theory and practice in a wide range of business situations. By the end of Level 5, students will have a sound understanding of the principles of leadership and<br/>management and will know how to apply those principles more widely in the business world.
