Introduction

This qualification is primarily designed for those taking responsibility for legal matters in a small business. It is also designed for those providing advice to small businesses such as Accountants, Book¬keepers and Business Advisors. Specifically, the four areas of study covered by this qualification namely, the English Legal System, the Law of Contract, Civil Liability and Employment law are designed to provide learners with an opportunity to gain a good understanding of the legal system in operation in England and Wales and as it applies to the small business.

The Structure Of The Qualification

This Level 3 qualification is comprised of a single Unit. To ensure that the Unit will effectively assess the legal understanding of candidates, the Unit is sub-divided into four Learning Outcomes with associated Assessment Criteria.

The first Learning Outcome is designed to provide an understanding of the English Legal System. This is complemented by the second Learning Outcome, Contract Law, which aims to develop an understanding of how the law affects the day-to-day trading by business organisations.

The third Learning Outcome is designed to provide candidates with an understanding of the extent of business liability in Tort (as opposed to Contractual Liability). Candidates will consider the legal rules in Negligence and its impact on businesses, employees and customers (especially when providing information or business advice).

The fourth Learning Outcome examines the legal provisions in the area of Employment Law.

Assessment

All Learning Outcomes will be assessed through one, externally set and marked, three hour examination consisting of four hand written tasks. The practical tasks will build on the candidate's knowledge of the four areas of study covered by this qualification namely, the English Legal System, the Law of Contract, Civil Liability and Employment law. The candidate will be required to answer one task from each of four sections, with each task carrying 25 marks. There will be at least two questions to choose from in each of the sections.

Certification

All candidates who both enter for and attempt the examination will be notified of their results in a formal Results Letter issued by the IAB approximately ten weeks after the date of the examination. Those candidates who are successful and awarded a pass grade in the examination may also apply for the IAB Level 3 Diploma in Business Law. This will be subject to the payment of an additional fee as determined and published by the IAB.
