More course information

This qualification is a competence based qualification aimed at people who already have experience of office-based skills and wish to specialise in business and administration functions; perhaps in, or preparing for a line management role. Learners can choose from a bank of optional units which show their ability to negotiate, supervise, manage and contribute to the running of an office. On completion, learners can progress to a Level 4 qualification.
Administrators handle the day-to-day tasks in an office and make sure things run smoothly. 97% of employers say that effective administration is essential to their business, so they do a crucial job.
The term administration covers roles that involve organising people resources, including executive secretaries, administration assistants, data entry clerks and office juniors. Without them, information would be hard to find, meetings missed and businesses would be less productive.
As a business and administration Apprentice, your exact duties will depend on your employer. It's likely that you'll be working with a team or member of staff to handle various tasks. You may be typing up board meeting documents, putting financial information together in spreadsheets, sending the daily post, or faxing and photocopying confidential documents. This sort of work requires a strong sense of responsibility, accuracy and attention to detail.
