wHO ARE aCCA?

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) are a global community of 241,000 members and a further 542,000 future members, based in 178 different countries.

ACCA qualifications help aid with the creation of sustainable economies and flourishing societies by developing forward-thinking professionals with financial and business skills.

Due to the professional qualifications being officially benchmarked to Master’s level, members can benefit from academic credit, and sometimes even public funding.

Members are also allowed to work internationally, complying with regulation in marketplaces worldwide, due to the fact that ACCA have had audit recognition since the 1930s.

wHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACCOUNTING AND BOOKKEEPING?

Bookkeeping is the first part of the accounting process, meaning the work of bookkeepers and accountants often overlaps.

While bookkeeping focuses on recording and organising financial data, accounting will interpret and present that data.

They both support the business in different stages of the financial cycle.

DISTANCE LEARNING ACCOUNTING

With distance learning, you can study the same subjects and qualifications you would in a traditional college, simply from home! It takes the location out of studying. You’ll save time and money on travelling, and if you have other life commitments, such as a full-time or part-time job, or if you have a family to look after, it may help to be able to study at a time that suits you.

There are no physical classes to attend or timetables to stick to. With 24-hour access to your course either online or through a study pack, you can study whenever you have free time (if that’s in the middle of the night it’s possible).

Tutor support

When you study your AAT courses with us, you’ll get unlimited, personal tutor support. Your tutor will be on hand to guide you through your course and help with any questions you may have, ensuring you are fully prepared for any examinations if needed. You’ll never be alone. This is just one of the many benefits you’ll get from enrolling with OSC.
