Question in this issue:
Yanis: I am studying a two-year higher diploma course which is accredited by the HKIAAT. Do I need to complete the new HKIAAT professional assessment if I want to become the member of HKIAAT? Can I take the professional assessment concurrently with the AAT Examination? |
Our answer:
All students whose courses commenced after 1 September 2009 are required to take the professional assessment if they have completed all eight AAT papers. The professional assessment, which is offered on a quarterly basis, will be assessed by a multiple choice examination (75%) and general participation in a workshop (25%). Study materials will be written in English and the workshops are conducted in English (with bilingual facilitators). Upon completion of the professional assessment and on possessing one year's of relevant experience, you can register as an associate member of the HKIAAT and be eligible to use the AAT designation. |
