Introduction

This certificate allows you to combine business management with German. It offers a broad grounding in key concepts associated with business management and a sound knowledge of the basic concepts associated with the study of German. You’ll divide your study equally between both subjects.

You’ll explore how businesses develop strategies, handle risk and make decisions. You’ll see what’s involved in functions such as marketing, accounting and finance. Combining this with the study of a modern language opens doors to other cultures and communities and can provide a key to the global workplace.

Key features

  • Develops a broad understanding of business organisations and their key elements.
  • Explores some wider considerations such as environments, markets and processes, and how they work together.
