The AAT Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Accounting is a distance learning home study course that takes you up to the completion of a set of final accounts for sole traders or partnerships. It is therefore very relevant for those who want to supply bookkeeping services or for those who simply want to progress their training to the next stage. The course also covers Indirect Tax (VAT), Costing, Spreadsheets and Ethics.
You can undertake the Advanced Level after having completed the Foundation Level (Certificate in Bookkeeping or Accounting), or if you have relevant prior qualifications or experience.
Upon successful completion of the Advanced Diploma in Accounting, you can apply to become an AAT Licensed Bookkeeper and gain the designatory letters AATQB. You can also progress onto the AAT Professional Diploma in Accounting qualification.
