BPP Accountancy Courses

BPP - CIMA I have been studying with BPP for the past couple of years, having switched from FTC Kaplan (so many mistakes in their texts!), and have found them to be professional, helpful and they've managed to get me through my exams to date! I would highly recommend them for any accountancy qualification. You can easily book courses by email/fax/on-line and its possible to mix & match course location and type. Their customer advisers are very helpful and will phone you if there are any problems with your booking and to chat about how they can help you. They have centres in most major cities and you can take exams in even more ...  Read the complete review

I'm currently using BPP study materials and attending their day release classes for the ACCA F8 paper so this will be a review of my experience with them so far. Classes generally start on time (9am) with several 10-15 minute breaks in between and a one hour lunch break. Although classes end at around 4pm you can stay behind after with questions for the tutor who would be more than willing to answer. One thing which I particularly dislike is the disruption caused by late comers and the classes do get pretty crowded sometimes. As with all BPP study centres, there are usually classrooms that are vacant which you can use (ask at the reception) to study ...  Read the complete review

I used BPP to buy a Home Study pack for several of my Certified Accounting Technician exams. The cost of each pack was just over £100 for a textbook, a set of pocket notes, a book of practice questions (and answers!) and exam style questions on CD. You also got two practice exam papers, which you undertook as if it were a real exam and then sent your answers to BPP and they returned them, marked, with the score you got and the answers sheet. The home study packs are around the same price they are with FTC Kaplan, the other company I have used to purchase study material. I found BPP to be helpful with ordering, my employer was paying for my books and wanted to pay ...  Read the complete review

I'm nearing the end of my AAT studies (just unit 10 to do, yippee!), and have always gone via the BPP home study route. BPP were recommended by my employers, because of the high quality of the home study packs. However, I have not always had reason to agree with this statement, as I found the textbooks to be sloppily written (typographical errors were common), and often there were mistakes in the questions and answers. Having said that, the textbooks do cover everything that will be examined and more, so I do not feel these small errors had a significant impact on my education. I would be interested to compare AAT textbooks from other companies to BPP's. ...  Read the complete review

Having worked in the accountancy field for the last 5 years, I decided that the only way I could further my career was to proceed with getting qualified. Obviously there are lot of things to be considered when choosing a training provider and when I decided to study for the AAT I was presented with a number of different training providers. I requested some literature from all of them and took a great deal of time in considering which one was right for my needs. Due to BPP's competitive prices and the flexibility of their programmes I decided that they were the ones for me. BPP provide training for many types of professional ...  Read the complete review
