The International Association of Book-keepers
If you’ve studied book-keeping to an advanced level, then chances are that you’ve done so with a career in mind. Business skills are going to be useful, but while you’re looking to establish yourself you should consider joining a professional body. Not only because of the support that you’ll get, but also because of the added respect and confidence that you can expect from clients and employers.
One option is the International Association of Book-keepers. IAB formed in 1973 to provide qualifications for people involved in the first levels of financial accountancy. With IAB, you need to pass three exams for full membership, one at each of three levels, and exemption from each level is considered for holders of the equivalent LCCI qualification. Work experience may also be taken into account. You can contact IAB at,
