AAT Level 4 Diploma in Professional Accounting
Our Level 4 Diploma in Professional Accounting qualification builds on the knowledge gained through the AAT Level 2 Certificate & Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Accounting, opening options for you to study a Chartered or Management Accounts qualification, like CIMA Certificate in Business Accounting.
Throughout this qualification, you will learn how to draft and interpret limited company accounts and prepare forecasts of income and expenditure. You will also be taught how to prepare draft budgets and revise them as required and learn how to measure performance and prepare performance reports. Finally, you will be able to review the finance function to identify risks and make improvement recommendations.
For 2022, we're proud to introduce &'Digital Extras', which is an excellent eLearning resource, containing many videos and animations, which will help reinforce your understanding of key certain topics better, and explain in detail how certain accounting calculations are made.
Once you have completed the Level 4 Diploma in Professional Accounting qualification and fulfilled the AAT work experience requirements, you can apply for your professional MAAT status. You can then use the designatory letters MAAT after your name.
