Apprenticeships let you learn on the job, develop knowledge and skills, gain an AAT Accounting Qualification and earn money – all at the same time.

This apprenticeship is ideal for someone just starting their journey in accounting and can be the first step on the ladder to becoming a fully qualified Accountant.

 You will learn on the job and in college taking into account how you would assist in the day to day financial activities such as data entry to month end management accounts and/or year-end financial statements.  In addition the Assistant Accountant may find themselves involved in regulatory financial requirements such as the completion of VAT returns or assisting in the preparation of tax computations.

You’ll study an AAT qualification by attending a college class one day a week with qualified tutors who all currently still work in the accounting industry.

 Study units include: Bookkeeping Transactions, Advanced Bookkeeping and Preparing Final Accounts, Elements of Costing, Working Effectively in Accounting, using Accounting Software, Professional Ethics, Indirect Tax

The course will be either 18 months or 2-2.5 years depending on whether the candidate has an AAT Level 2 Foundation Certificate already
