Advanced Diploma of Accounting
Pursue your career as a tax agent or prepare for further accounting studies by completing advanced courses in tax, commercial law, financial management, management accounting, company financial accounting, insolvency, and auditing.
Apply your skills and knowledge of financial systems as you undertake a practical placement with an accounting entity.
How you will learn
In this program you will undertake structured learning activities and authentic assessments in a largely face-to-face setting.
