Level 4 AAT Audit and Assurance

Course Overview

As many organisations and businesses now operate in the global marketplace, the role of audit and assurance is becoming increasingly important as it is seen as providing a measure of confidence in the rapidly changing accounting and business environment. Audit and assurance services have also come under increased scrutiny from the profession following high-profile corporate failures. This distance learning unit is suitable for individuals who wish to become a professional auditor and possess a sound understanding of accounting as this knowledge will be used during the practical application of audit techniques. The unit has close links with Level 4 Drafting and interpreting Financial Statements and Level 4 Internal Accounting Systems and Controls. This is an optional unit if learners are undertaking the full AAT L4 Accounting qualification.

What is AAT? AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) is the world’s leading professional body for bookkeeping and accounting with over 130,000 members worldwide. Their qualifications are developed in consultation with employers and will equip you with the key financial skills modern businesses are currently looking for, plus they are the perfect starting point for a successful, rewarding career in accounting and finance.

Please note: This is a revision resource, not a qualification, and it does not include any examination fees. This resource is designed to aid preparing for an exam.

If you wish to use these units towards sitting your AAT exam, it is important to register with AAT before completing these standalone units, so the GLH is counted towards your overall qualification.
