I am a self employed book-keeper and wish to get a qualification under my belt for payroll, to hopefully in the future, offer a payroll service. All my manual and computerised book-keeping qualifications are with the ICB. As I understand I need an ICB payroll qualification to get my insurance to cov...

The ICB are colloborating with the TDLC (The Distance Learning Corporation) to promote training for prospective students. Whatever we believe about the ICB (good or bad) the more p...

Hi Neil I can imagine that this exam is not going to be difficult, have finished all the courseworks for HLC and have been sent the mock exam for Level 1 Manual. Is it similiar to the ICB exam or are they totally different? Is it worth while ordering the ICB past paper and doing that before doing the exam? T...

I think that went OK. Unless there is something of which I'm so ignorant that I don't even know I'm ignorant. They're definitely putting more work in the papers, though. I only finished 10 minutes before time. (I did a 2008 paper in 2 hours). And I'm glad I've studied about half of Level III. How did it go f...

What's the difference between the AAT and Diploma courses? Is one better than the other, and why have they got two different courses anyway?

I know that the ICB let you put their crest on your stationery but do the IAB have anything that you can use?

Afternoon everyone, I've just been looking around to see if I can find out what work I can take on now that I have my ICB Level II (comp) and of course my practice license.

I am thinking of joing the ICB and should qualify on the exemption through working experience. It is years since I have done any exams and so wondered if anyone could tell me what to expect. The paper will be sent out to me and will take around 3 hours to complete.
