A/L students can fast track their career in Finance and Accountancy with ACCA

For students who will soon finish their A/L exams, ACCA takes this opportunity to wish them the very best in their exams. However, then comes the question of what do you do now? With so many opportunities it may seem overwhelming, especially at such a young age, to make such a big decision regarding your career and life.

As a young adult your need to further your education, or start a career. You may find that a career in accountancy with ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) which is among the leading global body for professional accountants will give the career opportunities you are seeking, especially since finance is the lifeblood of any organization and the demand for finance professionals has never been higher. This means that by choosing a career in accountancy one enters a world of unlimited possibilities.

.ACCA supports 140,000 members and 404,000 students throughout their careers, providing services through a network of 83 offices and active centres. Their global infrastructure ensures that exams and support are delivered - and reputation and influence developed - at a local level, directly benefiting students wherever they are based, or plan to move to, in pursuit of new career opportunities. Their focus is on professional values, ethics, and governance, and they deliver value-added services through 57 global accountancy partnerships, working closely with multinational and small entities to promote global standards and support.

With a reputation grounded over 100 years for providing world-class accounting and finance qualifications, ACCA champion opportunity, innovation, diversity, integrity and accountability. By promoting their global standards, and supporting members wherever they work, ACCA aims to meet the current and future needs of international business.

Another great fact about the ACCA qualification is that you can now enrol for their examinations whilst you await your A/L results. For instance, The CAT course of ACCA provides a route to enter the ACCA (Skills Level) course for those who have just sat the A/L. The course equips the student with the technical skills and knowledge for a support role in Accountancy.

It is a qualification in itself and entitles the student to use the designator letters CAT. On completing the CAT course the student proceeds with the ACCA Skills Level and also gains the BSC (Hons) Degree in Applied Accounting from the Oxford Brooks University. All these qualifications can be collected whilst the student awaits G.C.E. A/L results. No other Accounting course offers this additional benefit.

Apart from the above mentioned CAT qualification a student who is awaiting his A/L results can commence ACCA classes and complete CBE ( Computer based exams) which will cover the knowledge level exams. This will enable you to accelerate your career in finance and accountancy and you can obtain the required details of the tuition classes from our listed tuition providers. (www.accaglobal.com)
