Certificate IV in Accounting FNS40610

The Certificate IV in Accounting course on offer from AIFA provides students with the skills and experience required as an employee within a business to operate as a Bookkeeper or Accounts Clerk.

PLEASE NOTE: BAS Agents if you do not wish to complete further study beyond a Certificate IV you will benefit from AIFA's Dual Qualification Certificate IV in Bookkeeping & Accounting, see Compliance Courses.

This course is mapped to the latest FNS10 training package which in lay terms means it's the most up to date course available. The course is designed to immerse the student in a real world scenario by having them work for a simulated company where they will deal with peers and managers. This ensures that each student gains not only the required knowledge to obtain their Certificate IV in Accounting but highly valuable real world skills as well.
