Distance Learning Accounting A Level - The Course

The Accounting A level course is made up of two major components - AS and A2. The AS level distance learning course can be sat in its own right.

Each lesson begins with a set of clearly stated objectives and an explanation of its place in the overall programme of study. Effective learning is encouraged through frequent activities and self-assessment questions.

There are fifteen Tutor-Marked Assignments (known as TMAs).

Key Topics Covered

 

The course is arranged in four modules, reflecting the new four module examination structure of A levels.

• Introduction to Financial Accounting
• Financial and Management Accounting

• Further Aspects of Management Accounting

   

The Syllabus

This course prepares candidates for the AQA Accounting AS level syllabus 1121, for examination in 2010-11 and later examination series. Most candidates will then study the A2 syllabus 2121. The full Advanced Level qualification comprises AS and A2. We have chosen this syllabus as it is the most suited for distance learning.
