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 professional course and also gains the Hons Degree in Applied Accounting. All these qualifications are collected while the student progresses with the G.C.E. A /L. No other Accounting course offers the student this additional benefit.

The Flexibility of the CAT course offers students ample choice and options. They can sit for any number of papers out of the nine needed for completion of course. On passing the first five subjects the student gains to part I of ACCA and on passing all nine subjects to part II of ACCA. The course also allows the student to sit either paper based or computer based.

As the student progresses with the professional course on passing part II s/he has the opportunity to submit the Research and Analysis Project that is the first four papers. No other Accounting qualification allows such options.

The CAT course is a boon to students hoping to quality as a globally accepted accountant and offers them the gateway to a career for life. For more information please visit;-www.accaglobal.com
