Corey McGovern | Business & Finance 2023
I express my gratitude for the excellent education and training I received at Rathmines College. I started the A.C.C.A. Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business in September 2021 and I can confidently say that it was one of the best decisions of my life. Rathmines college provided the course at very affordable fees compared to other colleges. The ACCA qualification enjoys full international recognition which qualifies its members to work anywhere in the world. The course is comprehensive and flexible. The tutors at Rathmines College are highly qualified, experienced and supportive. They taught me not only the theoretical aspects of accounting and business, but also the practical skills and techniques that are essential for the profession. I would highly recommend Rathmines College to anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in Accounting and Business. The college is friendly, diverse and vibrant. The staff are dedicated, helpful and very professional.
