Business runs on money and data – and people who understand both are in huge demand. This new programme combines an A Level in Business with two V Levels, in Accounting and Finance and in Digital Systems and Data, giving you a powerful mix of academic and practical skills for the finance and tech-driven jobs of the future.
- Entry Criteria
5 GCSEs (9-4), including grade 5 in English Language and Maths
- What will I study?
Your A Level Business covers how businesses make decisions, marketing, finance, people and strategy in a global economy. Accounting and Finance adds bookkeeping, financial statements, budgeting and analysing performance. Digital Systems and Data teaches you how digital systems work, how to collect, clean and analyse data, and how to keep systems and information secure. Together, you’ll learn to read the story behind the numbers – building dashboards, spotting trends and turning data into business decisions.
- Future Prospects
Head to university for degrees in accounting and finance, business analytics, economics, data science or business management – local universities including the University of Hertfordshire, the University of Bedfordshire and the University of Northampton accept V Levels on UCAS points. Or go straight into a higher or degree apprenticeship in finance, data analysis, banking or audit, with careers such as data analyst, trainee accountant or financial analyst.
