This diploma is for anyone dedicated to the progression of their finance and accountancy career through the attainment of professional qualifications.
Study of the Level 4* Diploma in Professional Accounting will enable you to progress your career to more senior accountancy roles.
Many of our AAT students are already working and study around existing commitments. You will access your learning through myPitman, our learning management system, which enables you to study at a time and place that suits you best.
The benefit of flexible learning means you are fully in control of your learning pace and can revisit sections of the course whenever you feel the need, something which a more traditional classroom environment cannot offer.
The aim of this diploma is to teach you the more advanced elements of Management Accounting so that you can gain a Level 4 Diploma in Professional Accounting qualification from AAT.
Management accountants need to be able to interpret and analyse data to produce reports and then relate their findings to the organisation to provide insightful feedback that will help the business move forward and achieve its objectives. This course focuses on the three fundamental areas of management accounting: planning, control, and decision making.
