Non CAO Accounting Courses
- Question
- I'm interested in studying accountancy after the leaving cert and wondering what the options are outside of the CAO?
- Answer
- There are many accountancy options available at levels 5 and 6 QQI which will offer third level progression options as well as direct employment options upon completion. ACCA is another option. The Association of Chartered Accountants (ACCA) offers a variety of courses at all levels in a number of locations around the country and all qualifications are globally recognised. Students may study on a full or part-time basis and cover both financial management and accounting skills.
