What this course is about
UCAS code: N900
Here's what Blackpool and the Fylde College says about its Business Management course.
This Certificate of Higher Education in Business Management offers a more flexible approach to degree level learning. Lasting for just one year, this course allows you to develop key business skills both in preparation for industry and to progress to higher level learning. For students who aren't ready to commit to three years of further study this is the ideal stepping stone allowing them to decide which pathway is right for them at their next career crossroads.
The course covers a wide range of business issues from managing people to finance and marketing and follows the same curriculum as the first year of our foundation degree. You will also take a module which introduces you to academic study at degree level giving you the tools necessary to perform to the highest academic standards and make the most of this exciting opportunity.
The Certificate which is awarded by Lancaster University, although you'll study here in Blackpool, is part of a programme of accredited learning which could see you gaining a professional business qualification as well as a degree. This is certain to give you a head start when you begin to apply for roles in the industry where highly qualified and experienced graduates are in high demand.
