Enrol now for ACCA courses

Places are available for people who want to enroll for ACCA courses starting in September 2012.

The courses are aimed at adult learners who wish to qualify as Chartered Certified Accountants – this enables them to obtain employment and progress their career further in a variety of accounting settings – industry, private practice etc.

ACCA (Association Certified Chartered Accountants) is a private, internationally recognised institution who set a number of external accountancy related examinations which the students need to pass before they can obtain the status ‘ACCA qualified’ – the courses at Newcastle-under-LymeCollege are preparing students for these examinations via a day release study program commencing in September and January each year.
