Why choose this course?
What you will learn
The Leadership and Management Skills for the Workplace (BA) (Hons) is designed both for progression from the Level 4 Certificate of Higher Education Skills for the Workplace and for credit transfer from other business-related programmes.
Successful completion of studies on the CertHE Business Skills for the Workplace will enable learners to progress straight into Level 5 of this degree programme which follows a similar pattern of flexible delivery as the Certificate, being delivered with discrete modules, studied consecutively, with face-to-face tuition at a convenient community location. This programme will facilitate student study into management theory and practice, firmly contextualized within workplace experience.
In terms of subject content, the title “for the workplace” reflects the contextualisation of each module to the personal workplace experiences of the learners. This project-based, discursive approach to study ensures that generic theoretical models are consistently explored within a workplace context ensuring continued relevance to the needs of employers and career progression.
This course is available to apply as a weekday or weekend option.
