Offered in Option 5

This is a new subject in the NSC curriculum. It focuses on four key features:
- Business Environment: the different elements of the macro, micro
and market business environments, as well as the complex and diverse
nature of business sectors.
- Business Ventures: the development of important factors that
contribute towards the creation of sustainable business enterprises,
particularly the roles of creative entrepreneurs.
- Business Roles: the essential roles that learners need to perform in a
variety of business contexts.
- Business Operations: the knowledge and skills effectively to manage
essential operations such as human resources, public relations,
marketing and production, within the context of relevant legislation
and contemporary issues.
The purpose is to put learners in a position where they are able to effectively
apply knowledge and skills to analyse and deal with different business
environments, to initiate and carry out business ventures and successfully
carry out business operations.
This subject lays the foundations for business studies at tertiary level and is
of great interest for pupils considering a career in business.
