Practical requirements
What you need and how the course is assessed.
Entry requirements
OBS must confirm the current minimum age, prior-learning expectations and suitability checks for this subject.
Learners and parents should check whether the selected examination centre accepts private candidates for the exact board, specification and required components.
The examination centre sets registration deadlines, identity requirements, fees and local availability.
Online Business School makes the final course-enrolment decision.
Assessment in practice
Online module assessments and tutor feedback are preparation activities and do not replace the official examination.
The current exam board, specification code, papers, practical or speaking components and permitted exam series must be confirmed.
The learner normally books and pays an examination centre separately.
A centre may decline private candidates or may not offer every board, subject or component.
Further study
Progression depends on the official result
A successfully awarded International GCSE may support applications for suitable further study, including Level 3 or A-level routes. The receiving school, college, university or employer decides whether the subject, grade and exam specification meet its requirements.

Questions before enrolment
Frequently asked questions
Open each question to review the controlled answer. Ask RSG to confirm provider terms that may have changed.
Is this subject sold individually?
The live OBS course menu lists this subject, but RSG has not reproduced a current individual price or package term. The purchase model must be confirmed before enrolment.
Are examination fees included?
The current OBS Business IGCSE page states that examination fees are paid separately to the selected centre. RSG applies that warning across the preview until OBS confirms the exact terms for each subject.
Will completing the online modules give me an IGCSE certificate?
No. The online modules prepare you for study. The certificate depends on registering for and passing the correct official examination through a suitable centre.
Can RSG guarantee an examination centre or grade?
No. RSG can provide general signposting, but centres decide availability and registration, while the awarding body controls assessment and results.
What happens if I cancel, withdraw or request a refund?
Online Business School's current cancellation, withdrawal and refund terms apply. Ready Study Global does not set or administer the provider's refund decisions. Ask us for the current OBS terms before enrolment or payment.
