You must have completed and passed AAT Level 2 to enrol on this course. Where a potential student has needed a number of resits at Level 2, we would recommend enrolling on the Level 3 Certificate in Bookkeeping and completing the full Diploma over two years. We may ask you to take the AAT Skill Check in order to ensure that the most appropriate progression is offered.
After completion of the AAT Diploma in Accounting course, you will be able to claim Qualified Bookkeeper status from the AAT (AATQB).
You may wish to progress onto the AAT Diploma in Professional Accounting (Level 4) to gain Qualified Accounting Technician status (MAAT), and/or continue your studies with the ACCA, ICAEW or CIMA to become a fully Chartered Accountant.
Example job roles:
• Bookkeeper
