AAT or ACCA

I'd like to start retraining.

I am educated up to masters level but not in finance. No experience at all.

I've been looking at the courses run by First Intuition.

I can't decide whether to start with the very basic AAT level and then eventually progress to ACCA - you can get some exemptions for ACCA exams with Level 4 AAT - or just plunge into ACCA.

MY main concern right now is time. I am determined and focused but perhaps the sheer amount of time required for ACCA at this stage in my life isn't quite right.

Any insights much appreciated.

I have enrolled with EDX as they have online introductory courses in bookkeeping that act as a foundation course for starting ACCA.

I also have an interview with an organisation in two weeks that has some financial elements in the role.

I just need to keep plodding on and hope that I am capable enough to do this.

good luck today

Half the battle is being keen to do it, good luck, you will be brilliant!

Well done, it can be hard going sometimes but very worth while in the end. Good luck
