Yr 12 Business Studies

This course is made up of four parts: Business Management, Team Work, Workplace Communication and Introduction to Computing.

The approach taken in these courses is one of applied learning - that is - you apply the concepts learnt in class to real life  situations - maybe where you work or the school itself in the Young Enterprise Scheme (YES).

Workplace Communication and Introduction to Computing  are  papers (10 credits each) for the NZIM Certificate in Management  - more detail on this below or use the NZIM button on the right to go to their website.They also provide 10 credits each for NCEA Level 2 Certificate.

All papers are completely internally asessed so it is essential that you complete the requirements by due times.
