Bsc applied accounting.. Oxford brookes university

hallo informed friends. I have been sponsered to pursue a second degree. I would like to pursue above for few reasons the obvious one being time however i have few issues on the same

  1. Will it be recognised in kenya
  2. Anyone who knows anyone with one
  3. Do they offer guidance on thesis writting

Why not go for Msc proffesional accountacy and it follows the same path as the above named and you become ACCA at it? Anyway 2 degrees= a masters.

It should be recognized! I’m a holder of one. As a second degree though. Assuming this is after finishing P7 ACCA it should be! Another trick is signing up for CFA immediately after…employers (big 4) will be salivating over your ass

moto sana. Whats your take on Msc from university of london?

what was your experience while writing your thesis?

thank you

Hehe! I submitted the same one from my first degree! You can do it…consult more when you get stuck. Paying those pounds for a repeat is painful

I’m not familiar with this…I’ll read up on it!

I dont know about the MSc but wifey has an LLM (masters of Law) and a postgraduate diploma in some other law thing from University of London. Legit and recognized here

@Femaleperspective you are very intelligent. I like this, it is very informative. More than ile mambo yako ya simmers.

Now tell me how long it will take to get the FCCA qualification after finishing ACCA

It will be recognized. Have you done ACCA?
Most ACCA finalists have it although you only needed to finish the second part of ACCA to do the project not thesis.
The project is very easy to write. You should just read books on the same and avoid plagiarism because wazungu use software to trace such.
If you want to be an accounts/finance professional it will be of great help.
Take note of what @Female Perspective has said about doing CFA. Although i think costs are prohibitive. I remeber the CFA calculator alone was over 10K when i was at that stage na the mathematics was not a joke.

I wizh you all the best sir.

where/in what category are these courses?

The Bsc Applied Accounting falls in category 4. I like it because it gives you the opportunity to stand out from the MKU/KEMU/TUK group.

If you know somebody then it will be recognized, if you are jusst the way you are then you better take another course.,… You can try Education TSC will recognize you
