- Audio Case StudiesOur case studies cover a wide variety of real business topics from Accounting & Finance, Communication and Decision Making to Brand Promotion, External Influences to Strategic Planning.These are intended to not only help students pass exams but to help them gain a fundamental understanding of modern business, preparing them for a future career by bringing theory to life in “actual” business situations and practices.The case studies are designed to support independent learning, creating a number of personal, learning and thinking skills (PLTS), at the same time as encouraging more in depth understanding (and therefore better results), giving teachers and students alike a clear picture of the progress achieved.Although case studies are free to view individually online there is no substitute for having a Audio version to listen to each case study.
