The AAT’s qualifications sit within the QCF in providing a competence based qualification. The QCF is a new way of recognising skills and achievement through the award of credit for units and qualifications. It aims to provide greater flexibility and choice to gaining full qualifications.

How will I be taught?

Lectures; discussion and debate; group work; presentations; reading and writing exercises and interactive learning.

How will I be assessed?

At this level of the AAT qualifications, you are assessed by 3 computer-based tests and 2 computer-based projects which you have to be successful to pass.

What could I do next?

The valuable role played by the AAT and its members is evidenced by the support and recognition given by over 40,000 Employers in the UK and abroad. The AAT qualification not only provides you status and recognition for the Technician role, but also gives you a route to a qualification with Chartered Professional Accountancy bodies: CIMA, ACCA, CIPFA etc.
