AAT LEVEL 3 NEW QCF


Hi Guys

As anybody found out if you can do this new qualification without a learning provider, as all exams are now computer based.  I have been trying to get in touch with the AAT, but having trouble cos there lines are always busy.  Thanks for anybody who knows.

The AAT offer a free skills check to see how much training you need here:

I am guessing that since you don't want to go with a learning provider, you already have the skills you need to pass the exam.

Hi Sally-Anne,

As far as I am aware you cannot, the new QCF requires assessments to be taken at a college, only the final examinations are computer based.

Hi James
Thanks for your reply. I started doing AAT Level 3 with a learning provider, there study books are full of errors, and tutor support non existent, very expensive as well. Just thought as I was registered with the AAT I was considering doing this on my own and find a centre as an external candidate, as the new QCF framework does not have simulations anymore.  Just wanted to get this qualification done as I have already wasted a huge amount on money, and know I am not going to pass with this learning provider.

Hi Steve

The dreaded Home Learning College. I really wanted to complete this course, had set my heart on doing well, but the material is terrible, just wanted to try and do this on my own back and sit exams as an external candidate. Such a terrible mess.

Well if you are signed up for them then you'll have to stick with them.

Get the Osborne books they seem ok and some frank woods and get stuck in, book your own exams at a bpp or kaplan centre. All you will need your provider for is spredsheets assessment and one other (forget which one) but that is as yet undecided.

I'm doing it at home and haven't needed my provider yet so it's doable.

Every time I see the name I misread it and think of "Crianlarich" a village in Scotland. Reminds me of when I went clay pigeon shooting with my late grandfather.
Actually, I think I may have figured it out (if it is a joined up version of two shortened names - does that makes sense).

Hi Steve
Thank you for your kind reply, I have purchased the new BPP books, so will do what you say and learn myself, I have no trouble learning at home. If I book the exams at BPP or Kaplan, do you know how much each exam will cost.  Can always do some overtime at work.
