Advanced Diploma in
Accounting & Finance
Validated by James Watt College, Scotland, UK
The Advanced Diploma in Accounting & Finance (ADAF) is an applied vocational course aimed at the needs of industry rather than mere theoretical programmes which are commonly found elsewhere. Theoretical courses offer you little relevant training and self-development.

You will be equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to carry out accounting and finance duties effectively and efficiently.
The course will teach you how to read and analyse financial statements and you will be able to develop financial plans and discuss budgets. You will also learn advanced decision making techniques to solve major business problems.
Advanced Diploma in Accounting & Finance students will gain exposure in various accounting issues such as financial reporting, tax computations as well as the fundamentals of what is involved in auditing a company. You will be able to make vast and valuable contributions to your organisation and will be able to offer constructive suggestions at meetings, whether they are to discuss a budget, production plan, sales and marketing targets or profit ratios.
You will also be instrumental in solving problems thus enabling your department to become more profitable and will have gained team-building skills that draw your subordinates and peers to work towards uniform goals.
Your superiors and clients will be impressed with your hands-on abilities which will be a big plus point for you. The course has proven to be a very powerful tool and it has led to many career advancements for our past students. Many were offered job promotion or new businesses.
There is an acute shortage of senior accounts executive and corporate finance personnel in the market and those who are well-equipped with these advanced training in accounting and finance will be the ultimate beneficiaries.

The seminars conducted are very practical involving class discussions, case studies, role-plays, report writing, and presentations. These practical exercises will enhance your understanding of theories and help you to relate them to real life situations. At the end of each module, you will have to write a case study based assignment.
