Overview

This qualification is intended for individuals who are in work roles where they provide business support and information services to self-employed, micro and small businesses. Individuals must be committed to developing their own professional practice and knowledge base to be able to provide the most appropriate business information.

It is suitable for individuals whose work roles involve a range of activities which include dealing with enquires from clients, directing clients to appropriate services to suit their needs, and working with colleagues and contacts in an effective manner.

To achieve a full award, candidates must complete all four mandatory units. There are no optional units. There are five additional units available to candidates which may suit their work situation; however, they are not required for the full NVQ.

Like all NVQs this qualification is competence based. This means that it is linked to the candidate's ability to competently perform a range of tasks connected with their work. Candidates plan a programme of development and assessment with their assessor and compile a portfolio of evidence to prove that they are competent and knowledgeable in their work role.
