Business administrators have a highly transferable set of knowledge, skills and behaviours that can be applied in all sectors. The role may involve working independently or as part of a team and will include developing, implementing, maintaining and improving administrative services.
This advanced apprenticeship is ideal for you if you are already in an administrative role. It will allow you to deepen your knowledge and develop your career. As the natural progression from level 2, the programme will allow you to build upon the skills you previously gained.
Some of the modules you may get involved with are analysing and presenting business data, organising events, arranging business travel or accommodation and chairing and leading meetings.
At the end of the course you will achieve a level 3 Diploma in Business Administration and if required, level 2 Functional Skills in Mathematics, English, and ICT.
There are no mandatory entry requirements for this Apprenticeship framework. However employers are looking to attract applicants who have a keen interest in business and/or a particular interest in legal or medical administration careers. They expect applicants to demonstrate a "can do" attitude and have at least basic numeracy and literacy skills on which the Apprenticeship will build.
Before taking their end-point assessment, apprentices must achieve level 2 English and maths (equivalent to GCSE grades 9 to 4).
Apprenticeships are assessed by classroom study coursework and assessments along with on-the-job practicals.
On completion of this course, you can progress onto further study in this field or into a career in the business and administrative sectors.
