Diploma in Business Accounting
Master fundamental accounting skills
Learn the general principles and applications that modern accountants rely on. Expert professors will guide you through foundational concepts in a small classroom environment, supporting their lectures with hands-on learning opportunities. You’ll gain experience using spreadsheets and databases. You’ll also learn to use accounting and tax software programs such as Sage 50, MS Access, and Profile.
Learn how accounting supports business
Businesses rely on accountants to monitor their performance, compliance, and financial health. Your first year will involve a common curriculum shared by all business students, providing you with an understanding of how companies work. Topics of study include communications, finance, human resources, and marketing — all areas of business you’ll impact as an accountant.
