Training:You will undertake the “Assistant Accountant” Apprenticeship (an Advanced Apprenticeship in Accounting), with full support from Accountancy Learning as part of their Flexible Apprenticeship Programme.
Assessment will be by an “End Point Assessment” and will be graded “Pass” or “Distinction”. This will include two elements:
A Professional Discussion. This will include a series of questions allowing you to to display the knowledge and experience you have obtained over your apprenticeship. You will build a Portfolio of reflections and product evidence that will be used for discussion points in the PD
A Synoptic Exam. This will include elements you have learnt throughout your studies of the individual AAT Units, and this will contribute towards your end grade
You will be prepared for both of these elements by undertaking studies for the AAT (Level 3) Advanced Diploma in Accounting. This will underpin both elements of your “end point assessment”. It is anticipated that your apprenticeship duration will be for 15-18 months. Those with no prior accounting knowledge might be required to first complete their Level 2 Accounts/Finance Assistant Apprenticeship.
You will receive support from both the employer, and the training provider, to complete and achieve your Apprenticeship and will be given time to study during the week on a day release basis. As you are working towards a professional qualification, it is also expected that you will continue your studies outside of normal office hours.
As you learn more in both the office and in your studies your responsibilities, and the variety of tasks you undertake, are expected to increase.
Those with previous relevant qualifications and experience may be considered for a Higher Apprenticeship undertaking the Professional Accounting Technician Standard.Training Outcome:There is a strong progression path for a successful apprenticeship to go on and complete a level 4 apprenticeship afterwards along with continuous development and chances to increase duties and responsibilities within their role.Employer Description:Empro Business Group are a boutique consultancy group
