What is Business Administration?
Business Administration is varied and you could find yourself working in a small office with only one other person or a larger company with many people.
What training will I receive?
Your employer will train you to use all office equipment such as the telephone, photocopier and computer. You will be trained to work as part of a team and to plan and organise your work. You will gain knowledge of health and safety and need to be committed and well presented as companies have high quality standards.

• All vacancies are jobs from day one
• Your training will lead to a nationally recognised qualification
• You will receive an attractive wage/salary during training
• We have a dedicated team to support you with literacy and numeracy skills
• We operate an equality and diversity policy

What qualifications will I get?

1. Apprenticeship:
NVQ level 2 Business Administration.
Key Skills.
Technical Certificate.
2. Advanced Apprenticeship:
NVQ level 3 Business Administration.
Key Skills.
Technical Certificate.
All of our Training Officers are committed to you as the learner, giving you support where you need it most.

(ATTENTION EMPLOYERS OUT THERE! Apprenticeships are not only free for most of your staff, they are also an excellent motivator for all, and show what type of employer you are, contact us for more information)
