Depending on the level you study you will be learning in a classroom environment over one or two evenings a week. You are also expected to practice your learned skills at home or in your place of work. You should spend three hours a week studying outside of class, for each learning and assessment area. Your study time will need to increase before assessments when you’re revising. Don’t forget to use all the study and membership support that is also offered by AAT as well as from the course tutors. Whole class and group work activities will take place but the majority of your learning will be ‘standalone’. The course fee includes tuition and exam fees but you will have to purchase books from Kaplan which cost £113. You will also need to pay membership fees to the AAT.
