About the course

This two-year qualification will help you to step into the field of accounting and broaden your career prospects. You'll gain foundational accounting skills in your first year before progressing to expert studies in your second year.

　　In your first year of study, you will begin to develop the financial, analytical, research and communication skills required of professional accountants. You'll build your understanding through theoretical study and real-life cases. You will then select one of three majors in your second year.

　　You'll have hands-on experience using professional accounting software such as Xero, Excel, R, Tableau, SPSS, Oracle, APEX, Pythion, ArcGIS and VSOviewer. To further enhance your employability, you'll also undertake an accounting research project, analysing the performance of a real company and preparing a financial analysis.

　　This major will help you to prepare for a career in auditing and financial risk assessment, by ensuring you’re familiar with contemporary finance issues.

　　You will learn about financial accounting, legal and ethical regulatory frameworks in Australia and around the world, as well as a theory and practice of preparing financial statements, cash flow statements and audit reports. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
