Although there are no qualifications specific to the role of Accounts Assistant, there are a number of courses and certifications which might be useful to anyone considering this role, and can often help a candidate to command a larger salary.

Useful qualifications include those provided by CIMA (the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants), ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) the ICAEW (Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales), and the AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians).
Accounts Assistants will benefit greatly from developing skills in numeracy, Microsoft Office (specifically Excel), and packages such as Sage. Knowledge of tax laws concerning issues such as IR35 and VAT will also be useful for any Accountant.
