Overview

Economics is a social science that explores the problem of scarcity. It investigates the way in which scarce and limited resources are allocated to meet unlimited human wants. The subject is commonly divided into microeconomics and Macroeconomics, but the course starts off with an introduction to microeconomics that covers the basics before transitioning to advanced microeconomics. The course then transitions into macroeconomics before ending off with international economics.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
