The Graduate Certificate in Accounting is designed for students with a degree
in a field other than accounting who wish to obtain a sound introduction to
accounting concepts and procedures.
Normally, applicants for this course require a pass degree in a non-accounting
discipline or an equivalent qualification from a recognised tertiary
institution. Applicants without a first degree who have at least six years
appropriate employment experience should refer to the section on executive
certificates. Credit for previous study is not available in this course.
This is a fee-paying course. Candidates should consult the Department of
Accounting and Finance as to the 2001 course fee. Course fees are set and
reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
Successful candidates may proceed to studies towards a Graduate Diploma in
Accounting (or the Master of Practising Accounting), which will then provide
them with the basic requirement to obtain membership of the professional
accounting bodies.
The course consists of the following four core subjects:
