BTEC Level 3 (Extended Diploma Program by Pearson)
Offering a comprehensive two-year course, our BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Business equips students with specialized knowledge and practical skills equivalent to three A Levels. Recognized by the IBCC, Ministry of National Education – Turkey and Turkish Higher Education Council, leading world universities and providing UCAS points, we prepare our students for both higher education and employment in specific vocational areas.
The Pearson BTEC International Level 3 Extended Diploma in Business is primarily designed for learners in the 16–19 age group, who wish to pursue a career in business sector, primarily via higher education to access graduate entry employment, or alternatively through junior business employment. In the BTEC International Level 3 units, there are opportunities during the teaching and learning phase to give learners practice in developing employability skills.
Where we refer to employability skills in this specification, we are generally referring to skills in the following three main categories:
· cognitive and problem-solving skills – using critical thinking, approaching non-routine problems, applying expert and creative solutions, using systems and technology
· interpersonal skills – communicating, working collaboratively, negotiating and influencing, self-presentation
· intrapersonal skills – self-management, adaptability and resilience, self-monitoring and development.
International BTECs are internally assessed allowing for practical assignments that combine knowledge and career related skills. 25 percent of these assignments will be set by Pearson to provide additional external standardization. Assignments are scenario based and designed to be work relevant, for example by researching and presenting information and demonstrating the skills needed for employment.
BTECs are designed for progression into employment, such as starting their own business, and higher education:
· BSc (Hons) in Business and Management
· BA (Hons) in Business and Finance
· BSc (Hons) in International Management
· BSc (Hons) or BA (Hons) in Marketing
· BSc (Hons) in Retail Management
