Overview
The Cambridge IGCSE Business Studies (0450) and the Cambridge O Level Business Studies (7115) syllabi develop learners' understanding of business activity in the public and private sectors, and the importance of innovation and change. Learners find out how the major types of business organisation are established, financed and run, and how their activities are regulated. Factors influencing business decision-making are also considered, as are the essential values of cooperation and interdependence. Learners not only study business concepts and techniques but also enhance related skills such as numeracy and enquiry. The syllabi provide both a foundation for further study at Cambridge International A Level and an ideal preparation for the world of work.
