  • About the Course

    This flexible course is delivered in partnership with Mindful Education and combines online learning with face-to-face lessons in the classroom.

    This qualification will prepare you for junior and entry level accounting roles. It delivers a solid foundation in finance administration - covering areas such as double entry bookkeeping to basic costing principles and using accounting software.

    The Level 3 course covers a range of key areas including:

    • Introduction to Bookkeeping
    • Principles of Bookkeeping
    • Principles of Costing
    • The Business Environment

    We have partnered with Mindful Education to deliver this course through our flexible Online and On Campus model. You will be On Campus on Tuesdays fornightly from the time of your course start date.

    Online, you will study award-winning video lessons, which are available on demand, and can be viewed from your phone, tablet or computer, meaning you can choose how, when and where you want to study. Lessons last for around 45 minutes and are accompanied by animations and motion graphics to bring concepts to life. Practice questions, downloadable lesson materials and interactive case studies help to enhance the learning experience further and learners should expect to spend around 4-5 hours studying independently online each week.

    On campus, you benefit from regular classes with a college tutor without having to commit to attending multiple evenings each week. Your tutor will review what you have learnt during your online lessons and will be on hand to provide guidance on progress and assessment. Regular discussion with classmates will help to reinforce key points while also providing the additional support and motivation that comes from being part of a group.
