"The programme is fully geared towards employment and the syllabus is structured along the same lines as professional examinations, but backed up with academic theory. As our tutors have actually worked as Bonds Traders, Investment Bankers or Accountants, they tell us the reality of the profession we want to go into." Michael Tsangaris, BSc (Hons) Professional Accounting graduate
