Good administration is good business!
Business administration is a function that permeates all organisations, including small and medium enterprises (SMEs), large corporate companies and the Public Sector alike. At its broadest level, business administration is the organisation and management of work. It follows that a high quality administrative function is essential to all businesses and organisations, whatever their product, function or sector.
Every business needs effective administration, and that need remains whatever else changes in terms of new products and services, new technologies and new organisational structures. It’s vital to businesses that its people are properly trained to carry out these core functions to a high standard – and that’s where our Business and Administration Apprenticeships help.
Out training providers – like the College of Apprenticeship Training – deliver bespoke employer-focused business administration apprenticeships designed to achieve high levels of skills through a combination of classroom-based teaching and learning plus workplace training and assessment. Our model uses a variety of delivery patterns so that the employer is able to procure the training they need (ensuring their staff excel in their job roles) whilst selecting the most appropriate way for this to be organised and delivered.
Our Business Administration apprenticeships are designed so that your staff, or new employees, can enter the programme at a relevant level and progress through a series of workshops and work-based assessments attaining more skills and qualifications as they progress. The length of this training could be anything from 12 to 36 months depending on where your apprentice starts, where you want them to progress to and what job they end up doing for you.
