AAT Level 1 Bookkeeping Courses

New to bookkeeping and not sure where to start?

At Level 1, Training Link offers two entry-level AAT Awards, each achievable in as little as 2–4 months with no prior experience or qualifications needed.

The Award in Bookkeeping is the right choice if you want to get straight into bookkeeping tasks — processing transactions, recording receipts and payments, and understanding the basics of double-entry. The Award in Business Skills is better suited if you want to build broader workplace and numeracy skills first, such as understanding how a business operates and working confidently with numbers, before moving into bookkeeping or accounting.
