AAT Accounting Level 3, ESOL, Functional Skills Maths & English
2022 - 2024
LMC emerged as the perfect fit for my academic journey as they offer a program that seamlessly transitioned me from my functional skills studies into an AAT Acounting qualification. The knowledge I gain from studying this course is very valuable as it allows me to build a strong foundation of knowledge as well as handling my practical skills.
After relocating to Morecambe in 2022 Alemayehu joined Lancaster & Morecambe College through Global Link and enrolled onto AAT Acounting Level 3, ESOL and Functional Skills Maths & English.
The AAT Accounting Level 3 course is designed to ensure students are prepared to progress onto a career in the business world or even onto further education and studies.
LMC emerged as the perfect fit for my academic journey as they offer a program that seamlessly transitioned me from my functional skills studies into an AAT Acounting qualification. The knowledge I gain from studying this course is very valuable as it allows me to build a strong foundation of knowledge as well as handling my practical skills.
Studying these courses allows Alemayehu to build a strong skill set which he can carry into his future career.
In my accounting qualification I gain proficiency in accounting principles, bookeeping practices and financial analysis methods. With functional skills I am improving my communication and critical thinking which are valuable skills to have.
Alemayehu is close to finishing his Functional Skills English Level 2 and his AAT Accounting Level 3 which are going to be great accomplishments for him, when asked what he would say to someone thinking of doing these courses, Alemayehu said:
I would first say identify the areas you are intersted in to ensure the course is the right option for you, explore all your options and then apply. Once you apply for the course College assists you with anything you need allowing a seamless process. After this course I will join the employment market and find the best job for me, I hope to continue my studies throughout my career too.
YOUR TUTOR(S)
Behind every great business is a fantastic accountant! AAT qualifications are highly valued and they can really push you to achieve great things in your career. The whole team at LMC are dedicated and excited about giving you the best possible start in your new journey!
It’s really difficult to state just one thing I love about working at Lancaster & Morecambe College because there are so many! I really wanted to work here because the college has a fantastic reputation. I love introducing new ways of working and keeping up with relevant trends to improve the course, and I really enjoy the supportive environment that we create for our students.
The course gives people experiences of business in many forms which can be used in a huge variety of possible future careers – past students have gone on to work in sectors as diverse as fashion, charities, social media, nuclear energy, defence manufacturing and the public sector.
Teaching is my favourite part of the role, I love being able to help people reach that lightbulb moment in class! I also enjoy being able to inspire the next generation of Residential workers.
Industry specific apprenticeships are a great way to learn new skills and knowledge, achieve a recognised qualification and earn a wage. Customer service is the corner stone of every successful business, and courses at LMC will help you identify, improve and introduce these skills successfully.
I enjoy being part of the team and thinking of new ways to support local businesses in realising their potential. Watching learners transition from a one-day course to gaining qualifications motivates me to continue teaching at LMC.
