MAAT - full membership

Improve your prospects by becoming a member

Being a professional member (MAAT) is increasingly the decisive factor for any organisation looking to employ the best available accounting and finance staff.

Becoming a MAAT can boost your anticipated earnings beyond those of non-members with the AAT qualification, bringing greater responsibility, job satisfaction and personal and career rewards that typify AAT.

Become self-employed

If you want to set up your own business or work freelance, join our growing network of over 3,500 professional members, who are self employed as an AAT member in practice (MIP).

Working for yourself, you make the rules: you can be a sole trader, partner or director, choosing which services you offer. You also select the clients you take on and hours you work.

You can operate from home, around your family or carry on part-time in your existing job. All of these advantages can add up to a greater sense of work-life balance.
