And you can do it all at your own pace. Before you know it, you will advance to our highest accounting qualification.

Which programme is for you?

The ICB’s 5 business studies programmes are designed to give you the most relevant, practical and useful knowledge and skills around. This means that whether you’re undertaking a bookkeeping course, accounting course or business management course, you can be certain that you’ll be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to make you employable and valuable.

When you look at the programmes in detail, you’ll see that some subjects appear in all of them.  These are the courses that give you the most essential skills no matter what programme you choose. We update our course structure and content on the 1st of April each year to keep everything relevant.  This means you can hit the ground running at work with what you’ve learnt, with knowledge that is completely up to date.
