    One of the guys in the office did a evenng course in FAS. You might have to pay a very small tuition fee if your not on the dole etc. Do that and then get a job in bookkeeping asap, nothing like learning on the job.

    Wow he did just the course from fas thought they wouldn't be worth much in job hunting. I have seen a taxation course level 6 evening course if that's relatable

    Try to go for VAT AND Payroll courses. The more studying you can do in VAT and PAYE will benefit you long term.

    The lifeboat has set sail
