The indicative syllabus of this module is outlined in the units below:
Business and Society in Ireland
The role of regulation
Partnerships between Business Society
Societal concerns in Contemporary Ireland
Where the combined marks of the assessment and examination do not reach the pass mark the learner will be required to repeat the element of assessment that they failed. Reassessment materials will be published on Moodle after the Examination Board and will be aligned to the MIMLOs and learners will be capped at 40% unless there are personal mitigating circumstances.
This module is intended to provide learners with an insight into the relationship between business and contemporary Irish society, and the role that business plays in Irish society.
The module will explore key elements of this relationship, such as governance structures, regulations, and societal interests and concerns that are common in Ireland. Although the focus will largely be on the Irish context, it will also engage in some comparative exploration of these key issues in other countries.
