COURSE CONTENT The AAT qualification will help you develop the accounting skills needed in the workplace, including financial and management accounting, as well as IT skills and an understanding of professional ethics. For details of the units studied at each level, ask for a copy of the AAT Student Guide which is available at Enrolments and on the AAT website. PROGRESSION Once all 3 levels of the AAT qualification have been achieved you will be a qualified Accounting Technician and can apply for full membership of AAT as long as you can satisfy their 12 month work experience requirements. You may then consider continuing your studies to become a qualified accountant. Each of the professional institutes (ACCA, CIMA, ICAEW and CIPFA) accepts AAT qualified Accounting Technicians onto their programmes of study, and all offer exemptions.
