Certificate in Business and Digital Skills

Programme Purpose

The Certificate in Business and Digital Skills (Level 6, 30 ECTS) will equip learners with practical skills and knowledge in core areas of business. Through the unique combination of modules, learners will explore organisational behaviour (theory and skills applied to a variety of industry settings), acquire digital skills (necessary to a modern business environment) and develop an understanding of the importance of marketing communications in the promotion and future sustainability of a business. Through this programme, learners will acquire work-aligned skills that will prepare them for the challenges posed by the dynamic nature of the modern business environment, enabling them to make an effective contribution to the resolution of business problems. There are three taught modules, each of 10 ECTS, which lead to a Certificate in Business and Digital Skills, Level 6 Special Purpose Award. They are: Organisational Behaviour; Digital Skills and Literacy for Business; and Contemporary Marketing Communications. Learners who have taken this programme previously have been funded by the HEA Springboard+ fund and this programme will continue to be offered as part of the DBS Springboard+ portfolio. This one year programme will be delivered on a part-time basis with a full-time option enabled within a normal college day (9am-5pm), but will be delivered with the same composition in terms of hours, modes of delivery and independent learning.
