Employability
Employability is at the core of this course. Our vocational approach to teaching will help you develop a wide range of skills that employers are looking for. You'll have the option of an industry placement and you'll document your experience, so that it's recognised by the accrediting bodies.
Qualifications
This course will give you full exemption from the ACCA Fundamentals level, so you can work as a part-qualified accountant in public practice, industry or commerce. If you sit your exams for the ACCA Professional level (which you can sit at LSBU), you’ll be able to apply for a place on our MSc Applied Accounting course.
Your career
One of the most popular options on graduating is to go on to train as a chartered accountant. There are many different directions to pursue, specialising in financial reporting, taxation, auditing or forensic accounting. There are four main players in accountancy - Deloitte LLP, Ernst & Young, KPMG and PwC – but you’ll also find many small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) which provide plenty of opportunities on graduation, such as professional training and development.
In terms of salary, graduates entering accountancy can find starting salaries in the region of £23,000 - £24,000, with the potential for salaries to increase rapidly with further qualifications and experience. Senior chartered accountants can expect to earn up to £135,000.
