A note on eligibility: This apprenticeship is designed for those looking to start or change their career and gain new qualifications.

If you already hold an AAT qualification or a higher-level finance/accounting qualification, or have significant experience in this field, you would not be eligible for apprenticeship funding under government rules. This is because the programme is intended to provide substantial new learning and development.
