This course purpose is to inspire and enthuse learners to consider a career in the Business sector.
On successful completion of a NI Traineeship, participants will receive a full Traineeship Diploma equivalent to five GCSEs at grades A*-C (including English and Mathematics qualifications at level 2).
The course will require a commitment of 17 hours per week on campus and one day per week on work placement. The course purpose is to inspire and enthuse learners to consider a career in the Business sector. It is the aim of the qualification to give learners the opportunity to gain a broad knowledge and understanding of, and develop skills in, the Business sector.
