KAT AAT ACCOUNTING LEVEL 4 DIPLOMA After completing AAT Level 3, Kat progressed to the Level 4 Professional Diploma to further develop her accountancy skills and advance her career. The course offers her the flexibility to revisit lesson transcripts through the TEAMS study group, enabling her to learn at her own pace. “This qualification has not only taught me theory but also how to apply accountancy skills in real-life scenarios,” Kat explains. With English as her second language, she’s found the tutor support invaluable in helping her fully understand the lessons. Looking ahead, Kat plans to gain a full accountancy licence and set up her own practice. She highly recommends the course, praising the excellent teaching, modern facilities, and outstanding support.

PAUL BRICKLAYING LEVEL 2 DIPLOMA

After time away from education, Paul returned to study Bricklaying at Level 2 to pursue a career in a field he truly enjoys. “Bricklaying is a high-demand skill at the moment, and I wanted to move into something hands-on and fulfilling,” he explains. Now in his second year of study, Paul has developed a range of skills, including building walls, loading out, mixing, and constructing brick and block cavity walls. He praises the tutors and staff for creating a welcoming and supportive environment - whether through expert teaching or assistance from the College’s admin team with securing finances. “Returning to education was daunting, but the team at Preston College made it a really positive experience,” he says. In the future, Paul plans to join a building team as a semi-skilled bricklayer and continue gaining experience in the industry.
