The AAT Level 2 Certificate in Bookkeeping is designed to provide students with the fundamental bookkeeping skills essential for a wide range of finance roles. This qualification offers a solid foundation in manual and computerised bookkeeping, enabling students to process financial transactions accurately and efficiently.
By completing this qualification, students will develop practical accountancy skills in the double entry bookkeeping system, understand the relationship between various accounting records, and gain proficiency in dealing with VAT and trial balances.
The AAT Level 2 Certificate in Bookkeeping comprises of two modules:
This unit introduces students to the double entry bookkeeping system and the associated documents and processes.
Students will learn how to set up bookkeeping systems, process customer and supplier transactions, manage receipts and payments, and record transactions into ledger accounts. The unit covers both manual and digital systems, providing students with the flexibility to adapt to various accounting environments.
Building upon the knowledge gained in the Introduction to Bookkeeping unit, this module explores control accounts, journals, and reconciliations.
Students will learn to produce control accounts, reconcile bank statements with cash books, use journals to record transactions, and prepare trial balances. This unit enhances students’ ability to verify and validate entries, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of financial records.

Although HTFT consistently achieves pass rates that exceed the national average, it would be misleading to suggest that every student passes first time, exams are challenging, and setbacks happen. That’s precisely why we offer our HTFT Pass Guarantee. Any student who books a live or on-demand course is eligible for the Pass Guarantee.
If a student meets the guarantee conditions but does not pass the exam in the agreed exam window, they can rejoin the full course for either of the next two available exam windows. The choice of which window to join is made by the student, with guidance from HTFT.
To maintain your Pass Guarantee with HTFT you must have complied with the following criteria.
