Foundation in Finance Diploma

Underlying every good business is a well-kept set of books - and often computerised accounts too.  It’s a skill that’s necessary for small and large companies alike; is transferable from one employer to another; and can be the starting point for a rewarding career in financial accounting.  The skills required cover a number of clearly defined bookkeeping techniques as well as mastery of industry standard software common to virtually every business in Scotland.

  • Learning these considerable skills is easy with Pitman Training.  Our tried and trusted methods are the best available and are designed for speedy results.
  • You work at your own pace in our comfortable premises, helped by experienced tutors as required.  The atmosphere is relaxed and non-competitive.
  • You choose your own hours, working when it suits you – and keep the reference books and training manuals when the course is over.
  • The subjects covered are shown below.  Together, they will equip you to start a new career in bookkeeping, with the potential to develop further expertise as you progress.
  • On completion of your final exams, you will receive a Pitman Training Diploma that is recognised nationally and internationally by employers.
