Already doing an AAT course, or finished one? Experiencely does not sell AAT. We give you the real experience that turns your AAT into a job. No more courses. You've done the studying. We place you on live client books within 48 hours, working in Xero, Sage and Excel, fully remote. Three months later, you have the real accounting experience every advert asks for.
An AAT course is one of the most popular routes into accounting in the UK. Whether you chose an AAT course online, are working through an AAT course Level 3 or have reached a Level 4 AAT course, you build solid knowledge of bookkeeping, VAT and financial statements. Many people also start with a bookkeeping course AAT offers at Level 2.
What an AAT course cannot give you is real work on a client's books. Experiencely does not sell AAT training. Our programme is experience only: a remote placement with a UK business within 48 hours, at least 3 months on live client books in Xero, Sage and Excel, mentor reviews, a reference, CV rebuild and interview prep.
This is what a hiring manager screens for on a junior accounting role. Your qualification gets you to the starting line. Without commercial experience, you're one of 140 applicants per graduate role, and you look the same as everyone else.
