How do I enrol onto AAT courses?
Much depends on whether you intend to enrol onto AAT courses via a college classroom-based course or with a distance learning provider. The actual enrolment process itself will vary between individual providers. Here, we will run through the basics with you and then go on to describe enrolment process in detail, should you decide to enrol with Accountancy Learning.
College courses:
If you are planning to enrol onto a College (classroom based) course, then you can generally complete your initial application by phone, email or via website – you will probably have to complete a detailed application form. The College may well then invite you in for an interview to progress your application. Generally, there are two key course starting points:
- September
- January (not all colleges offer this)
Distance learning courses:
If you are planning to enrol onto a Distance Learning course, many providers enable you to enrol via a website shop (e-commerce system), over the phone or you might be able to complete a manual enrolment form via email. Generally, courses can start at any point during the year (although ‘timetabled’ online lectures may have specific starting points during the year).

From here, you will be able to select the course package you are interested in as well as your chosen payment method i.e. you can choose to pay for your course in full or you can opt to pay for your course via an interest-free payment plan.
