Overview

Accounting and finance are fundamental to business operations, serving as the backbone of various industries. Whether in banking, manufacturing, large service industries, or micro-businesses, the capacity to effectively manage, plan, and account for money remains the quintessential gauge of business success and the primary catalyst for growth.

The objective of the Level 4 Diploma in Accounting and Business qualification is to provide learners with an understanding of accounting and business within the broader business context.

The objective of the Level 5 Diploma in Accounting and Business qualification is to equip learners with the knowledge and skills necessary for a middle manager role within an organization.
