Business education is becoming more accessible thanks to new technology, which allows more flexible learning.

One such qualification is the Open University Business School’s BA honours degree in business studies, offered via distance learning.

The Open University Business School is an accredited business school and is part of the Open University in the United Kingdom.

The BA (Hons) Business Studies degree provides a general understanding of business organisations and environments, markets and processes. Learners are taught to analyse how businesses develop strategies and essential functions, such as marketing, accounting and finance.

The degree capacitates learners to understand business dynamics and to develop the knowledge and skills valued by employers.

While learners do not require formal academic qualifications to register for the degree, an agreed level of English language skills is required.

With the academic year starting in November, registration is open and offered via distance and online learning, giving students the opportunity to study in their own time and at their own pace, while benefiting from the support of online tutors.
