Dutch term

bedrijfsbeleid

Non-PRO Dutch to English Bus/Financial Education / Pedagogy
This is listed as a course component for a TSO (Technisch Secundair Onderwijs) in Belgium. After some research it appears to be a Belgian usage of the term in this context, and I have come up with 'Business Management'. Can anyone confirm this?
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (2): Ron Willems, Michael Beijer

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Thanks all of you for weighing in on this one. I just don't think company policy as a course (component) is what is meant here Michael. I have since found this explanation of a 'bedrijfsbeleid' course:
Bedrijfsbeleid (3 studiepunten)
Je bekijkt een bedrijf of een organisatie door de ogen van een manager. Hoe wordt een bedrijf gestructureerd? Welke strategische beslissingen moeten genomen worden? Hoe stel je een business-plan op? De cursus Bedrijfsbeleid geeft je concrete antwoorden.
oops! My fingers were ahead of my thoughts, should read ... actual name of a general course.
As I understand it, 'bedrijfsbeleid' is a component of a course and not the actual name of general course.

Agree As a course title, I would go with 'business management'.

Business Management

(see discussion)
Example sentence:

Towards the end of the 20th century, business management came to consist of six separate branches, namely: HR Management, Operations Management/Production Management, Strategic Management, Marketing management, Financial management, and IT management.

Business management skills need to be developed to their full potential if a manager, and therefore an organization, is to be successful.

corporate governance

I too found corporate/company policy, but I don't think that this is generally included in a (business studies course). Corporate goverance (and business ethics) is frequently included and analysed as part of a business studies course.
