Accounting

Accounting is a highly skilled profession, working at many different levels, from expenses and bills to taxes and payroll.

Our courses will prepare you for the business world, giving you the skills to carry out work that requires a strong sense of responsibility, accuracy and attention to detail. 

Most young people studying a Level 3 vocational programme do so to enable them to get into university or progress onto our Level 4 programme.

Students with AAT qualifications are very successful in accessing a variety of HE courses in a wide range of areas.
