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.
The Level 2 course will take place on Tuesdays from 13:00 until 18:15. This course is delivered face-to-face only at Neath College at present – students can choose to attend in person or online. Course delivery for Brecon Beacons College and Newtown College students is online only.
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. In addition to the course fee, students will need to pay exam fees of £280 (exam fees could be changed by the awarding body).
This qualification delivers a solid foundation in finance administration and core accounting skills, including double-entry bookkeeping, basic costing and an understanding of purchase, sales and general ledgers.
Units include Introduction to Bookkeeping, Principles of Bookkeeping Controls, Principles of Costing and The Business Environment which will provide a good breadth of understanding for the new accounting employee or those wishing to enter the accounting environment.
