Overview<br />
Assistant accountants provide support to<br />
internal <strong>and</strong> external customers either within<br />
an accountancy practice or for the finance<br />
department of an organisation. An Accounting<br />
Apprenticeship will allow you to get involved<br />
with a range of tasks including raising<br />
purchase orders, coding, <strong>and</strong> filing invoices<br />
as well as giving a taste of what a career in<br />
Accounting might involve. You will study for an<br />
AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians)<br />
professional qualification while working<br />
for a company <strong>and</strong> earning a wage. AAT<br />
qualifications are highly respected within the<br />
industry <strong>and</strong> demonstrate a level of excellence<br />
<strong>and</strong> work-readiness sought by employers.<br />
How will I be assessed?<br />
• AAT examinations<br />
• Synoptic end test<br />
• Portfolio of evidence<br />
• Reflective discussion/structured interview<br />
