Business & Administration

If you provide administrative support to your manager or department, an NVQ Certificate in Business and Administration (QCF) is a highly flexible, nationally recognised qualification that enables you to become more effective in your job and to demonstrate your skills and experience to current or future employers. The qualification is awarded once you have shown that you can competently demonstrate your business and administration skills.

This course helps you plan your NVQ Programme, gain the necessary knowledge and understanding and compile the portfolio of evidence required to achieve the Level 2 NVQ Certificate in Business and Administration. You’ll plan your programme of learning, development and assessment with your Assessor and work together to compile a portfolio of evidence that proves you’re skillful and knowledgeable in your role.

The subject areas you will be demonstrating your competencies in may include: incorporating your company’s values into your own behaviour, dealing with unacceptable behaviour, sustainability, diversity, workplace security, how to create, summarise and locate information, deal with mistakes, support your colleagues and work effectively as part of a team.
