What a BEd in Business Studies involves
Programmes of this kind typically cover the principles of business, including accounting, commerce, economics and entrepreneurship. They also train you in how to teach these subjects effectively – lesson planning, classroom assessment, and communicating ideas clearly to students. Most graduates go into teaching business studies in senior high schools, either in the public or private sector. The degree also builds transferable skills in analysis, communication and organisation, useful in many other education-related roles.
