HI
Has anyone done any exams with CTA or ATT? ...which is the higher qualification?

i am trying to decide how to further my qualifications after level 4 and as i am looking

Hello Sarah
I think CTA is the higher qualification as it is for Chartered status, Chartered Tax Adviser. There are a numerous people on this forum who have, are currently or are considering studying ATT/CTA. ATT will be good grounding for you to continue to CTA if you wish to.
You may find this post contains some helpful information http://forums.aat.org.uk/showthread.php?36785-Att&p=264344#post264344
Let us know what you decide.

Hi Sarah
I have done the ATT and can confirm that compared to AAT the difference on tax knowledge is vast. Before, I started the ATT I thought that I had reasonable tax knowledge but on receipt of my study pack from Tolleys I realised there is a major difference.
If it helps I am pretty certain I still have stored on my computer a Tolleys Study Manual when I completed the qualification which was a few years ago, so whilst it is not particularly up to date it would give you an idea of what is involved. Please PM me if that would help!
Regards
