Course Overview
AAT (The Association of Accounting Technicians) Courses offered give students the opportunity to gain experience and to progress in their accounting careers. Courses consist of three levels. Each level represents a qualification in its own right.
Students receive a certificate for each level achieved. Registration with AAT is required and the cost of this is paid directly to the professional body.
Units include Bookkeeping Transaction, Bookkeeping Controls, Elements of Costing, Using Accounting Software, Work Effectively in Finance and a Synoptic assessment which will provide a good breadth of understanding for the new accounting employee or those wishing to enter the accounting environment.
