ACCOUNTING PROGRAMS

Graduate Diploma in Accounting – Melbourne (Bundoora) (LGA)

The graduate diploma has been accredited as a conversion course by both CPA Australia and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia (ICAA). This enables graduates who did not take an accounting major as part of their undergraduate degree to become professional accountants. It also allows students who have overseas qualifications in accounting to qualify for membership with the two Australian professional accounting bodies.

Note: CPA/ICAA must deem your qualification to be equivalent to an Australian Bachelor degree. Degree assessment is the sole responsibility of the student and must be completed before enrolment in the course.

Admission requirements

An Australian Bachelor degree or approved equivalent qualification in any discipline is required.

Degree requirements

To fulfil the requirements of the Graduate Diploma in Accounting, students must satisfactorily complete a minimum of eight subjects each worth 15 credit points.
