Please could you advise if there are any supporting workbooks that are available to help cover the underpinning knowledge for the Business Administration NVQ’s Levels 2 and 3?
Many thanks
Thanks for your question Sue.
I know that Pearson Publishing is preparing a series of publications, including such materials for learners to cover major apprenticeship areas, and that includes the Business Administration area. They’ll cover the whole of the framework, including the NVQ, technical certificate and the functional skills. They’re not ready yet, but as soon as they are, I’ll let everyone know through the forum. I’m not sure if there’s anything available specifically for the NVQ, for adult learners, perhaps other contributors to the forum may know?

Hi Sue,
Although we (Tribal) do not have specific learning materials for the Business Administration NVQ, we do have materials for the NVQs in ITQ, Management and Team Leading. We are also currently developing materials for the level 2 award, certificate and diploma in Business Skills. Parts of these materials could be used as underpinning knowledge sessions for business administration.
Hope this is helpful.

Many thanks for that information Lee.
There may be other learning resources available, specifically for the Business Administration NVQs that other colleagues may be aware of?
Does anyone have any recommendations?

Hi Claire

We have used the Level 2 and Level 3 Books towards the latter end of the academic year and the students were very positive regarding these; they liked the layout and 'tips'.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your post Di. Feedback regarding the textbooks you have used have been favourable. The Workskills books also provide additional resource material for your learners - you can view some of the new resources for Bus & Admin at the following link:
