Course contents

• Collate and analyse financial information, and show how that information can be used most effectively to support value creation within an organisation.
• Apply accounting principles and adhere to legislation to ensure records are accurate and compliant with law or company policy when delivering accounting activities, such as the financial accounting of single entities, limited companies or partnerships or management accounting activities for an organisation.
• Apply professional scepticism when undertaking accounting activities to inform and evaluate decision making on the content of true and fair accounts, being alert to conditions that may indicate possible misstatement of financial information due to error or fraud, establishing the facts sensitively and being aware of unconscious bias.
• Interpret financial information for accounting purposes, such as using judgement to determine the correct way to report or account for transaction or undertaking ratio analysis.
• Participate in or support others with quality improvement activities, for example the improvement of personal working practices.
• Use software packages to assist with accounting tasks in line with cyber and data security requirements, using data securely and safely, including backing up data.
• Deliver accounting tasks with a critical eye to transactions and trends, demonstrating a 'right first time approach'.
• Use workload management principles to plan, organise and prioritise own tasks, and manage time effectively.
• Use accounting information to add value to the organisation through use of data visualisations, analysis and interpretation, and communicate financial information in a way that facilitates understanding for non‑finance stakeholders.
• Communicate accounting information through a variety of media to enable key stakeholders to understand what is required, considering the risks and benefits to the organisation of social media and other digital applications.
• Build and maintain collaborative, professional relationships with internal and external stakeholders to deliver accounting tasks, recognising the importance of equality, diversity and inclusion.
