The professional apprenticeship route to becoming a Chartered Accountant (CA) is a government-funded way to boost careers.

The Level 7 Accountancy or Taxation Professional Apprenticeship offers students in England the prestigious CA qualification* alongside additional apprenticeship learning and support. It provides them with an excellent foundation towards becoming fully qualified Chartered Accountants.

*Apprenticeship programmes do not guarantee CA designation. The CA is achieved on completion of ICAS Relevant Practical Experience requirements.
