About the course

This qualification recognises a broad range of intermediate business administration and computing skills and knowledge required by the business community.

The Compulsory section includes unit standards that cover knowledge and skills that are necessary for safe operation in Business Administration.

The Elective section allows programmes to reflect the needs of the candidate and their work environment in business administration and information technology-related roles at an intermediate level. Minimum credits specified for interpersonal communications and writing recognise the need for competencies that underpin all business administration roles.

The Balance section allows a greater choice of skills and knowledge to promote greater relevance to candidate and workplace needs.

This qualification is the second of four qualifications in the business administration pathway for people seeking employment and/or further training and education through an accredited provider or through work-based training programmes.

This qualification builds on the skills and knowledge recognised by the National Certificate in Business Administration and Computing (Level 2) [Ref: 0008], and can lead to the National Certificate in Business Administration (Level 4) [Ref: 0634] and the National Diploma in Business Administration (Level 5) [Ref: 0370].
