Testimonials

“This program is highly recommended for working/busy mums (from my pov) that cannot attend courses in person. I have work experience in payroll, but no qualification. This is a fantastic option to gain some qualifications. Easy navigation around the site. There is help readily available for any questions you may have. Thoroughly enjoying my course two weeks in.." - Maria H.

“I recently enrolled in the Accounting and Payroll program. TCA is a very nice online platform to learn things while working full-time. The content of the study is interesting and easy to read and understand, Also we can see our progress in the module and we can discuss our queries with the Tutor anytime.

"It offered me the accounting theory that I needed, with the option to add ‘Accounting Technician’ status to my name, along with applying all my theoretical knowledge into practice through the use of accounting software such as Xero.
