This qualification develops learners’ knowledge and skills in a range of aspects of financial management and accounting. Learners will develop an understanding of current practice by using analytical skills and knowledge to take advantage of opportunities and minimise threats within the current work environment. Successful completion of this course will enable you to work as a fully qualified accountant.
Assessment
The qualification is assessed through one remote exam per unit. These exams will be a combination of scenario-based multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and scenario based short and long answer questions. Scenario-based MCQs are questions presented in hypothetical situations using a who, what, where, when and why format that tests the required knowledge. This allows for learners to answer the questions by choosing the appropriate responses to the situation.
Exams are conducted through our online learning platform using Safe Exam Browser software which must be downloaded by the student during their induction process. Students are also required to join a Zoom meeting with an Invigilator who will ensure a fair and authentic assessment process takes place throughout each exam. Each exam is a minimum of two hours in length with a minimum of 100 marks to achieve. Learners need to achieve at least 50% from each exam to achieve a pass. The grading for this qualification is pass/fail.
