About this course

AAT Level 2 Bookkeeping Course in Bournemouth. Classes run at Kings Park Leisure & Learning Centre on Friday afternoons, over 17 weeks. This course covers two additional units, Principles of Costing and The Business Environment, building on the bookkeeping units you've already completed. Together, the four units make up the full Level 2 AAT Accounting qualification. The part-time daytime schedule means you can fit study around other commitments. Concessions may be available on the course fee.

Who this course is for

This course is for learners who have already completed one of "Accounting - AAT Certificate Part 1" or "Bookkeeping - AAT Level 2 Certificate" and wish to study two additional units to get a Level 2 Accounting qualification.

What you will learn

  • You'll apply principles of costing to business scenarios
  • You'll understand how costs are recorded and reported within an organisation
  • You'll explore the business environment and how it affects financial decision-making
  • You'll build on your existing double entry bookkeeping skills
  • You'll develop the knowledge needed for a bookkeeping or accounting job role

How you will learn
