Is there funding?

The course is either Co-funded or fully funded.  If you are in receipt of any benefits or low wage (less than £25,000 (£30,491 for CPCA) gross per annum), then the course will be fully funded.  If either of these are not applicable, then the course fee of £900 would be payable.  This can be paid by credit or with debit card or via invoice to an Employer.

Will I have to do any work at home?

Yes, we recommend spending as much time studying at home as you do in the classroom. So, if you spend one day per week in class, you should also spend one day on self-study spread across the week.

What will I need to provide?

A basic calculator and something to write with. You will require the use of a computer outside of the classes.

Are there any other costs?

Yes, you are also required to register with AAT - the current fee is £180. Any re-sits of AAT exams are charged at rate of £80 per sitting.
Non-completion of the course (including the taking of examinations) or failure to attend 3 consecutive sessions without notification may result in a charge of £185.
