This course is suitable for people who have gained considerable learning through their work experiences in an accounting and finance role but have no academic qualification which recognises this.

If you are currently employed in an accounting and finance role and are looking for a degree course that will take into account your previous learning, and which allows you to gain credit for your future learning through work, then this course is suitable for you.

What is KIS?
What you study
The course consists of core modules, taught option modules and supervised independent study option modules. Although core modules are compulsory, you can choose to study any combination of taught option modules and supervised independent study modules to make up your final award, which provides you with the opportunity to tailor the course to meet your own professional development needs.
How you learn
For taught modules lessons will include interactive structured seminar and tutorial activities which will be used to stimulate classroom discussion and debate. The course will encourage you to reflect on your work based practices to enable you to find new and innovative approaches to work based problems that will benefit your own professional development.

Where you study
Taught modules will be delivered at our Middlesbrough based campus.
