We focus on you as an individual and create plans to ensure you can succeed. We have knowledgeable and experienced tutors that deliver interactive and varied lessons. We work flexibly to suit your needs and those of your employer. You can join at any time of the year.
You need to be professional, friendly, open, honest, and have good communication skills. You also need a good standard of maths and English (we can help you with maths and English qualifications if you need them). Problem solving skills, an ability to use your own initiative, and being a good team member is really important.
You may find family commitments difficult to juggle or adjusting to your working hours and time needed to study. Stay motivated and keep a positive attitude to succeed. Remember, your tutor is there to help you!
Your tutor will create an individual plan and guide you throughout your studying. We will also provide support when you complete your course regarding next steps or further qualifications and training. We can also help you with maths and English qualifications, if you need them. For more information please visit our learning support page.

You’ll gain an understanding of how businesses run and grow. The skills you learn will help you in any job role in the future and you’ll gain a broad business perspective.
On successful completion of the course, you’ll receive a nationally recognised qualification. Also, many apprentices are offered permanent employment with their current employer once qualified or you may be able to progress onto the next level.
On completion of the Level 2 you can progress to Level 3 or seek employment in your chosen field.
