Hi everyone,
Is accounting for everyone 12 module online course for £50 any good?? Anyone recommend this, reading the website it looks very interesting and clear way of learning. Sometimes reading my Kaplan text books and testing on myaat can get a little tedious this could just give my knowledge a boost and help me towards my work plus my exams??
Thoughts? Or any other people would recommend?
Thanks
Yes I started my studies at level 4 due to my experience etc they decided to start me there. Sometimes I wonder was it the right move but Im doing my best to plough thru my studies and Im nearly exam ready according to my tutor haha!
Hi again Shoncee
I would be tempted to steer away from that course you mentioned. In truth Ive never heard of it but when they advertise as the 'worlds' best I find they often are not.
I would suggest as you have some experience of the work, but feel the need for a revision of the basics perhaps (?) that you back track and take a look at the level 3 modules of AAT. No need to sit the exams if you dont want to and indeed no need for all the textbooks. You could just go for the Q&A books and work your way through them and see how you go.
Kaplan are pretty good at supplying lots of questions in their Q&A books, as opposed to the what can seem very dry and boring textbooks. Ive posted a code on here before which gets you a discount for ordering and just choosing the Q&A books for each topic are relatively cheap. The code still works even though it was meant to be a one off type code. Do a search for it. If you cant find it, nudge me on 10th and I will get it for you (sorry totally battered with work at mo...VAT return ever nearer and two new clients to do in 4 days what is 3mths work). You could go back to level AAT 2 if you felt the need, although I dont think its necessary, besides the level 3 books cover some of it in part as a revision thing. Other resources to try - Ive head good things about Osborne Training - they have some free resources online. or again go for the Q&A books. (I have no discount code!).
You could try ebay for old books, but be aware that some of the content will have changed (eg the way discounts are applied/tax regs and limits), but the basics you can still learn from.
