Course Description

Accounting is not just about mathematical techniques. Learning those techniques is important but there's more to it than that. We want to show you the bigger picture, so you can take your career in any direction you choose. As well as teaching you the techniques, we'll help you to understand the role of accounting and financial management within an organisation. You'll learn how it affects everything from budgeting and control to environmental issues. The first year gives you a broad understanding of accounting. In the second and third years you'll study accounting and financial management techniques in detail. You'll become familiar with the challenges faced by professional accountants. As your confidence grows, you'll develop your own views on how to approach those challenges.
