London School of Accountancy & Management - Accredited CAT Tuition Provider

Certified Accounting Technician

Upon successful completion of the Certified Accounting Technician examinations, you will receive an invitation to become a Certified Accounting Technician. However, completing the examinations alone does not mean you have completed the qualification. In order to obtain the qualification and use the designator letters CAT (Certified Accounting Technician) after your name, you must also satisfy the appropriate practical experience requirement. Alternatively, if you have an NVQ Level 4 in Accounting, this is regarded as equivalent to the practical experience requirement and completion of this and your CAT examinations will be accepted for CAT status.
