    I just discovered this forum a week ago. I gained MAAT in 2000 and work as an administrator in an infant school. I have never met another MAAT who works in a school and would love to know if there are any!

    Hi Schoey,<BR><BR>I gained MAAT a few weeks ago at the ripe old age of 57 and I work full time as the finance manager of a charity. For several years I was the only finance person and did all the work from bookkeeping & computer records right through to producing financial statements and accounts ready for audit. The charity is expanding now and there will be two other people working with me.<BR><BR>Chris

    I qualified MAAT in 1999 when I was working as a cost analyst for a chemicals manufacturer. I moved almost immediately to the Treasury function and undertook the corporate treasurers international cash management certificate (CertICM). I then left and joined a French engineering company for 9 months before joining the UK treasury operation of a US company (based in Manchester) which makes automotive parts for supply to aftermarket and original equipment manufacturers ( we make bits of engines for Ford, GM, Renualt, Peugeot, Fiat, Mercedes etc !)<BR>Currently studying for my corporate treasurers membership exams (AMCT)<BR>I'm also a volunteer careers advisor for the AAT

    Message for Veinards

    I am a technician level student (being nosey on your page) and am a Finance Officer in a junior school. In my area I only know of myself and my friend (that I dragged along with me) who have Level 3 and another who stopped after level 2. <BR><BR>I must admit that I didn't start this whole process with school work in mind, but I have found that things I have learnt have helped me along the way. <BR><BR>N U and D

    I qualified MAAT in June 2003, currently working as Accounting Technician in Local Government. My main responsibilities are Bank Rec, Budget setting, Budget monitoring, and Final Accounts for year end.<BR>My employers are going to sponser me to gain the CIPFA qualification, I understand this may be a big jump from AAT. Has anyone else started or completed this qualification?

    When I started Intermediate Level I started working in a primary school. Since becoming a member (Nov 03) I have gained promotion and now go around all the schools in my area, offering advise and support. I believe the AAT offers an excellent grounding for bigger and better things.
