Need help with my NVQ Level 2 Business Admin Assignment for Apprenticeship

Hi I recently started an apprenticeship and have an assignment to complete but im finding it hard to complete the first question which says: Outline guidelines, procedures and codes of practice that are relevant to personal work. (Guidelines are ‘rules’ that explain to you how you should behave at work and how you should do a job in the right way). Any help on how to answer this question?? It has to relate to Business Administration

Hi,
I'm studying the same thing at the moment and I am struggling with this question as well.
Procedures would be related to the company you work for and there ways of doing things. For example, answering the telephone, filing systems, stationery ordering. If you write about some of your job tasks and the specific way the company likes you to do them.
Codes of practice - were you given a staff handbook when starting your job? This helped me a lot, it is pretty much their policies on health and safety, equality and diversity, data protection. If you read through them and relate it to some of your job task

I hope this helps.

Thanks guys I've already finished that unit and now working on another one. It is Unit 204: Communicate in a Business Environment and the question is "Explain reasons for knowing the audience to whom the communication is being presented" Any ideas?

Hi

If you understand the audience then it is easier to find the most effective and efficient way of communicating your message e.g. work in a school? Parents are the target so write an announcement on the weekly newsletter, work in an office? send a memo out to the team of people you directly manage, have a meeting with Directors the next day? send an email with documents attached for up to date info prior to your meeting etc hope this helps

Hi, I have currently been employed as an apprentice and will be completing the Level 2 Business and Admin qualification, and just wanted to know how you found it personally?
Also, I know my apprenticeship is for 12 months, is this how long the qualification will take to complete?

Thanks

I started my apprenticeship in March this year and I have 15 months to complete. When I filled in all the paperwork with my college assessor and employer they decided that this would be plenty of time. If you complete it between 12-15months they can sign you off as finished.

If you need any help with any of your units feel free to message me.

Easy.

Think of the various groups you deal with within administration and then the type of information required. You could essentially set it up like a list.
