you would think that it should wouldn't you as AAT gives exemption from F1, F2 and F3.
The actual rules are that you can become an AAT full member without taking the Accounting Qualification (AQ) if you are exempt from or have completed the following units of the ACCA Fundamentals (current syllabus, introduced December 2007):
- F1 Accountant in Business
- F2 Management Accounting
- F3 Financial Accounting
- F7 Financial Reporting
Plus at least one of the following units:
- F6 Taxation
- F8 Audit and Assurance
You must provide a reference, agree to uphold high standards of professional conduct, and commit to continuing professional development. You will also need to:
show that you've gained one year's relevant work experience (or the equivalent part time)
provide employer-verified confirmation of proven competence in specific areas
complete an online professional competence test (PCT) on key aspects of financial accounting, professional ethics and health and safety.
Hope that helps and welcome to the forum,
kind regards,
Shaun.

I am currently studying for my ACCA qualification and on some of my colleagues said, that it would be good to have AAT qualification on my CV in the meantime (until I finish ACCA). What are are exemptions? I am on paper 7. Would that cover all the AAT and maybe more?
