Business & Management (Foundation Entry)
On our Business & Management Foundation Entry course, you’ll gain the awareness and skills to succeed in the dynamic, ever-changing world of business.
Foundation Entry degree courses are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly join an Honours programme. It’s entirely unique, and a great stepping stone to degree study.
We focus on practical learning and you’ll develop core business skills in key areas such as problem solving, decision making, team working and communications.
You’ll understand how organisations operate and the importance of effective management. By the end of the programme, you’ll be an independent learner with the skills, knowledge and experience to make informed decisions about your future career.
