All students must complete the following three papers.
Entry Requirements:
The minimum entry requirements are two A- levels and three GCSEs in five separate subjects, including English and Maths, or equivalent. However, since virtually all our students are from third world countries and mainly South-Asia, we encourage graduate students to join the course.
Similarly, for your start in getting towards becoming a professional accountant Regent College offers tuition for a preliminary course such as the CAT. We at Regent College run full-time courses for the Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) qualification.
CAT Qualification and background:
The Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) qualification is structured and examined by ACCA, and offers you the opportunity to further your career options. In studying for the CAT qualification, you may wish to start a career in finance. CAT is the stepping stone for these aims. We at Regent College also seek to help you develop your skills which will be needed for successful study in higher education.
Entry requirements:
No formal academic qualifications are necessary to enrol for a CAT course. Exemptions Holders of certain qualifications may receive exemptions from some papers. You may also be able to claim exemptions from the introductory level exams if you satisfy the one year's practical work experience requirement

CAT exam dates:
