ACCA Approved Employer Logo

Association of Chartered Certified Accountants Approved Employer

In October 2014, Clear Books became an ACCA Gold Level Approved Training Centre.

ACCA is a global accounting body with over 170,000 qualified accounting members and more than 400,000 student trainees across 180 countries.

Being recognised for this prestigious accreditation is a great achievement for any company, especially a growing startup, and we’re delighted that it will allow our accounting students at Clear Books to utilise ACCA to fast track their professional development. This will in turn benefit Clear Books customers, as our support team will be even better placed to handle any complex accounting queries they may have.

Summary

The process of becoming an approved employer is based on various factors such as internal review processes, funding towards training and examinations, as well as the environment for learning and mentoring. With the new accreditation and all of these aspects in place, we will continue to ensure that training is a key part of our company and employee development.
