5 Guidance Links This unit links with the external environment pathway units, especially: Unit 1: Business Environment; Unit 35: European Business. Essential requirements Real life case studies and real time news articles will be needed to support learners through this unit. The use of case studies at this level will need careful preparation and management. There are a large number of examples of case studies focusing on individual firms, transnational organisations, governments and economies, often in appropriate journals. Learners must read a quality newspaper, journal or associated website on a regular basis. Employer engagement and vocational contexts Centres should try to develop links with local Employers. Many businesses and chambers of commerce are keen to promote local business and are often willing to provide visit opportunities, guest speakers, and information about business and the local business context.
