WHY ACCOUNTANCY?

Every parent dreams that their son or daughter will be happy and successful in life. You start by wanting them to have a good education, one that will stretch them and give them the right qualifications. Then it’s about using those qualifications to find a fulfilling career, something they can feel enthusiastic about and which also gives them financial rewards and long-term prospects.

A career in accountancy gives them all this and more. By becoming part of this respected profession, they will benefit from:

• excellent job prospects and career development
• job security – all organisations need financial professionals, even in the toughest climate
• financial stability – accountants can command high salaries
• mobility – accountants can move easily between industries and countries.

One of the most popular ways to embark on an accountancy career is to study with ACCA
(the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
