Course Overview

In every sector and in businesses of all sizes, efficient administration is vital. The Business Administrator Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship will provide valuable experience of a variety of business-related activities. You will be working in an office environment where your duties could encompass many areas of office work such as customer enquiries, working in a team, dealing with computer systems, organising meetings and taking responsibility. Because administration is important in most businesses, your exact duties will depend upon your employer and you could find yourself working within a specific department, or across the whole business. This Apprenticeship provides a good grounding in business skills that should provide you with transferable skills and help you progress with your career.  

The course will cover:

  • Value of Administration
  • Stakeholders
  • Relevant Legislation
  • Business Fundamentals
  • External Environment Factors

 

Enabling you to develop skills in:

  • Advanced IT
  • Record and Document Production
  • Interpersonal Skills
  • Communication
  • Planning and Organisation
  • Project Management

Apprenticeships are a great option both for GCSE school leavers and A-Level students who want to get straight onto the career ladder, or people looking for a change in career. A-Level 3 Apprenticeship is academically equivalent to A-Levels, although remember that the Apprenticeship is a vocational level.

You will need to independently find a and a place of work to suppport your studies, (although students who are already employed are welcome to apply if sponsored by their employer). Your offer of Apprenticeship training will be dependent upon work placements being available. Please note it is the employer’s final decision as to whether an Apprenticeship placement is offered.

You will need to have Mathematics and English GCSE Grade 4 and above (formerly Grades A*-C) or equivalent, and be willing to learn. Some previous work experience could be advantageous. A level 2 qualification in Business Administration would be useful but is not essential.

You should be able to demonstrate:

  • An interest in Business
  • Reliability and flexibility
  • The ability to work in a team as well as on your own as well as being self-motivated
  • Good organisation, communication and computer skills
  • The ability to work under pressure and to strict deadlines
  • Commitment to learning

You will be continually assessed throughout your training, mostly in the workplace, with day-release at Bournemouth and Poole College. Your progress will be reviewed regularly and achievable targets set to ensure you complete your Apprenticeship on time.

On successful completion of this Apprenticeship you could progress onto another Apprenticeship, such as Team Leader/Supervisor or HR Support, or Associate Project Manager. You could also move into a different type of role, such as Marketing or IT.

Where possible staff from Bournemouth and Poole College’s BASE team will help you find an employer and a place of work (although students who are already employed are welcome to apply if sponsored by their employer). Your offer of Apprenticeship training will be dependent upon work placements being available. Please note it is the employer’s final decision as to whether an Apprenticeship placement is offered.
