Birmingham, Hotel du Vin - Tuesday June 29th

This one-day course provides an overview of the syllabus content, exam pattern and marking and is therefore an ideal introduction. It will also suit staff at existing Centres, who are about to teach the Edexcel course for the first time.

NQT/New to Business Studies - 3 day course London, July 12th - 14th 2010
This course is a serious attempt to prepare teachers to deliver Business Studies for the first time. It includes direct instruction on how to teach elasticity, accounts and ratios, investment appraisal, motivation and many other key topics. There will be input from inspectors and Chief Examinors to clarify the standards sought in the classroom. The July 2009 course was a great success - largely because three intensive days can make a real difference. Delegates receive a memory stick with a huge wealth of Ian Marcouse's resources.
