AAT and Bookkeeping

stefanG

Good Afternoon All,

This question will seem pretty silly to most but i shall ask it anyway.
I am studying my AAT AQ2013 Level 4 At the moment (Personal Tax and Business Tax Modules Passed, 4 more to go), yet i don't feel confident in Bookkeeping yet ? is this normal ? I am lucky to have quite a few Sole Traders/Small Companies asking for myself to do there bookkeeping/accounts for them (Lucky to have a popular brother) and i was wondering are there any resources i can use to get a more "real life" experience/case study to practise on ?

Any help will be appreciated greatly.

Just for Clarification on my background with AAT/Work
AQ2013
AAT Level 2 Passed 2016
AAT level 3 Passed 2016
AAT Level 4 (2 out of 6 complete)
Accounts Assistant (Mainly standard invoice Entry) for a medium sized company.

I'm about to complete Level 3, so theoretically could register as AAT Bookkeeper. However, I wouldn't feel ready to take on clients. I think the key is to get experience as well as the theory of the qualification. Easier said Than done sometimes! But try finding a bookkeeper or accountant who needs some help

RosieNC Thanks for the response, I will look into it once i have passed level 4 in about 3 months. Its annoying/flattering to get alot of people ask you to do there books for them but just questioning my own confidence at the moment.

Great to know you can do bookkeeping with L3 Qual.
