Lewis Jones, AAT Level 3 Diploma

After studying business at Southport College, straight from school, I quickly found out that I excelled in all of the accounting units and I decided I needed a course that was more financial. That’s when I discovered that I could study AAT and this put me on the path to becoming a qualified accountant. Southport College has been fantastic in terms of my education and well-being; they have helped me in every way possible. All the tutors have an amazing amount of knowledge and their hands on experience of running and managing businesses has been really useful giving me a better idea of what to expect in the future and more insight into the sector. I’m going on to study the AAT Level 4 qualification with Southport College and once I’ve completed that I hope to become a Chartered Accountant.
