IAB Level 3 Certificate Manual Bookkeeping
Who is the course for?
The IAB Bookkeeping qualifications are specifically designed to appeal to those who are aspiring to become, or who are already, professional bookkeepers or
accounts administrators.
What do i get out of it?
On successful completion of all the mandatory units the learner will receive a certificate to confirm the achievement of the Level 3 Certificate
in Manual Bookkeeping (QCF). The certificate will include the full name and accreditation number of the qualification and the grade obtained.
The Qualification
This qualification is part of the Qualification and Credit Framework (QCF), which became fully operational in September 2010.
Qualifications within the framework are made up of units and each unit is given a credit value, where one credit represents 10 hours
of learning time. The title of every qualification within the new framework will contain details of the size (award/certificate/diploma),
level of difficulty (Entry to level 8) and general content of the qualification.
Assessment and Grading
With the introduction of the QCF the IAB has introduced additional assessments to supplement the standard form of examination. The additional assessments
can consist of a combination of knowledge tests, assignments or a project. In order to successfully complete the qualification all the relevant modes of
assessment must be successfully completed.For this qualification the IAB will provide all assessment material including the knowledge tests, assignment
and examination. For assessments other than the examination it is expected that the accredited centre will mark the original scripts with a 20% sample
being forwarded to the IAB for external moderation. Front sheets will be supplied with answer books which will allow the recording of the marks for the
assessment and allow for details of internal verification and external moderation. IAB examinations will be offered as standard sittings in January and
June, or on an on demand basis. All on demand sittings are subject to a minimum period of notice.
Are there any extra costs?
No, the learning material, the tutor support, access to past papers and sample assessment material, the IAB qualification fee and the external exam fee at an
accredited IAB exam centre are all included in the price. If you choose to sit the exam at a non-accredited IAB exam centre you will have to pay the relevant
centre separately.
