Business studies

Nau mai haere mai.

Welcome to the business studies area, supporting the teaching and learning of business studies with best practice approaches, a variety of effective strategies, and useful resources and website links.

The study of business is about how individuals and groups of people organise, plan, and act to create and develop goods and services to satisfy customers.

Business is influenced by and impacts on the cultural, ethical, environmental, political, and economic conditions of the day. Issues such as sustainability, citizenship, enterprise, and globalisation are central to both business and the study of business. (Ministry of Education, 2009)
