Business Management & Administration T Level

Looking for September 2024 entry? Apply for the Management and Administration T Level (new window) which is delivered at Eastleigh College.

This new and exciting course will enable you to develop the skills and knowledge needed for a rewarding career in Business Leadership or Management. As one of our T Level programmes, this two year technical study programme has been developed with global, national and local businesses to cover specialist content that is required in the business sector. This is a level 3 qualification, equivalent to 3 A Levels, and includes a valuable 45-day industry placement.

On successful completion of the T Level, you can progress onto various job roles in the public, voluntary or private sectors. This qualification can also lead to university and other relevant areas as the qualification has full UCAS points (this is grade dependent).

You can also use this T Level to progress to a related higher-level apprenticeship.

This course gives you highly transferable skills and opens the doors to a wealth of career opportunities including retail, finance, law, human resources, marketing and management, starting your own business, and for entry to higher education.
