The quality choice around the world for over 40 years

Whether you’re looking for your first role, changing your career or working towards a promotion, an AAT qualification on your CV shows employers you have the level of excellence and work-readiness they need.

Why employers love AAT qualifications on your CV

Expertise they can trust

AAT is a brand that employers trust. We’ve got a successful history of delivering high quality accounting and bookkeeping qualifications that makes us stand out from others.

Tailor made qualifications built for the modern workplace

We work with employers when developing and writing all our qualifications, drawing on their real-world experience and the qualities they look for in employees. This guarantees you’ve got the skills they want.

A mark of competence and professional excellence

To progress through our qualifications you have to display practical competence. An AAT qualification on your CV shows employers that you understand the theory, and can apply it at work. If you progress to become an AAT professional member, you’ll also be able to gain letters after your name and really stand out from the crowd.

“Encouraging staff to study AAT is a total no-brainer in terms of developing their team. It’s such a fantastic qualification and completely applicable to our line of work. It means that their practical knowledge of accountancy is good, that they can apply their studies into a real-world scenario – that is vital for what we do.”
