in AAT Level 4 (Level 8 in Scotland)
Hi Everybody.
First wish that all of us pass June exams,but we still have to think what is next.

I am thinking of doing ACCA and I am looking at studying from home as other options are more difficult for me as I am short in time (travel up and down),children,working full time and maybe expensive.

I have looked at Premier Training .They provide all materials you need to study at home(as they say on their website).Any ather on lline provider?

Is anyone thinking to study from home??
Is it possible to pass these exams just on self study?
Am I "stupid".if I think I can do it.

Also ,I am working in public services and CIPFA is very recognasible .
I have heard that you can study for CIPFA on line?How? where? how long?

Any advice ,help ,news etc will be apreciated.

Thank you

    If you type 'distance learning' or 'home study' into the search function it should bring up some relevant threads. The three main distance learning providers are FTC Kaplan, BPP & Premier Training, you should find threads on all of them as well.

    Hope that helps. :001_smile:

    I was thinking of studying distance learning myself as I can't afford the classes and my employer doesn't look like they want to pay for me. BPP & Kaplan seem to be about the same. Premier has apparently gone down hill (I've read I've never used them).

    There are quite a few distance learning students over on the accountancy students forum - you might want to ask them how they find it:

    There is probably further information on CIPFA's website about online study. I know there were some problems when it first went online.
