Becoming an Accountant
Want an exciting, professional career in finance? - Take a fresh look at Accountancy!
What are the benefits?
An accountancy career starts with being a trainee. You don’t need any experience as comprehensive training fully supports you as you work towards your AAT qualification. CFW is a platinum ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) training practice and an authorised ACA training provider, and we’ve trained many successful individuals.
The advantage of being a trainee is that you don’t need to go to university. You won’t need to take on a student loan and you’ll be earning as you learn. The ideal accountancy trainee is a quick learner with a can-do attitude. You’ll need Level 4 or above in English and Maths at GCSE, good A-level grades and a valid right to work in the UK.
If you’re studying business studies, economics or maths at A level – this could be the ideal opportunity for you.
What’s the training route?
The Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) is the world’s leading professional body for accounting technicians and its qualifications are universally respected and recognised internationally. An AAT qualification is a route to some of the most in-demand skills in the world and provides you with a professional status you can be proud of. Once you’ve completed your training, you’ll be a qualified accountancy professional.
After gaining your AAT qualification, if you want to, you can also progress through ACCA training to become a fully qualified accountant. Jobs in accounting are extremely diverse, offering exciting career opportunities and a competitive salary. Studying for a professional accounting qualification gives you the skills and experience that future employers need.
If you are part way through your training, whether AAT, ACCA or ICEAW, CFW can also support you to complete this.
