The AAT (Association of Accounting Technician) is an internationally recognised qualification, which qualifies many people around the world to be accounting technicians. The organisation is sponsored by CIPFA, ICAEW, CIMA and ICAS; and is head-quartered in London, UK. The qualification is based on practical, real-world accounting knowledge which can be put to use even as it is being acquired. Achieving the AAT qualification will increase employability, confidence and career prospects – it gives long-lasting business and finance skills.

Your choice of exit points

Once you embark on the AAT qualification, you have three exit points. These are AAT Level 2 Certificate, AAT Level 3 Diploma, and AAT Level 4 Diploma. Obtaining the AAT Level 4 Diploma, holders can proceed to one of the following qualifications:

• ACCA
• CIMA
• ICAEW
• BA Honours International Accounting

Entry requirements

You do not need prior formal qualifications to begin studying for the AAT. It is, however, important that you have sufficient English language and numerical ability to be able to pass the assessments. AAT therefore only asks that you are numerate, and that you can complete exams and written projects in English. BIBF will therefore need to assess the numeracy and English language skills of applicants. If you have relevant school qualifications, or a degree, or some accounting experience, you may be able to start at a level higher than 2.
