Application for AAT Examination Certificates at modular level
Candidates who have successfully completed a certain combination of the papers in the AAT Examination can now be awarded an interim qualification. The AAT Examination has been divided into two modules, and successful completion of each module leads to the following qualifications:

» AAT Diploma in Accounting (Completion of Papers 1 to 4)
» AAT Advanced Diploma in Accounting (Completion of Papers 5 to 8)

Notwithstanding the modular approach, students can still attempt any paper in any sequence. Students who have completed the relevant module or examination paper can apply for certificate.
