The training provided by McArthur was exceptional. After being away from studying for over 25 years, the thought of picking up the books again was incredibly daunting. Even though my employer Think Active paid for my course I could choose the training provider. The ability to complete sessions online, along with access to resource books, allowed me to fit studying around my work and personal life. Their expertise in delivering engaging and well-structured sessions made me feel confident and empowered. I could reach out for support at any time of day and always received a prompt response. I would highly recommend McArthur Online to anyone seeking to obtain their accounting qualifications or further their professional development!

“I’ve completed AAT Level 2 Bookkeeping, earning a distinction and was highly satisfied with the course and am now preparing to sign up again for Level 3. Jon made his tutorial videos interesting to watch and very informative. Both Jon and Emma were friendly and approachable with any queries I had. Working full time, I found the flexibility to work at my own pace, with no time pressures, ideal. I would therefore highly recommend McArthur Online to fellow students.”

McArthur Online have played a huge role in helping me pass my L2 Bookkeeping Exams. I am studying alongside my full time role as Cabin Crew so the distance learning is perfect to fit around my schedule. Jon’s videos are superb – they are well structured, the right pace and very methodical in terms of theory vs practice questions. I purchased the Bundle from the team and managed to pass both L2 exams in the space of three months. Even whilst balancing revision with my flying schedule, I was able to pass the POBC exam with 100% meaning I have passed L2 with a distinction! Very chuffed! Thanks to the team, would definitely recommend. For context, I have completed the CIMA qualification with an alternative service provider and the McArthur Team are leaps and bounds ahead in terms of service and support.

“I wanted to study bookkeeping to give myself the opportunity to explore a completely different career path in the future, and could not be more pleased that I chose to study with McArthur Online. I needed to be able to tackle my learning in a very flexible way, in the evenings mostly, and it enabled me to do so with ease. The videos were fantastic, and the past papers complemented them perfectly. My tutor Jon also answered any questions that I had within moments via email. A perfect combination for a long distance learner with the need to study in a very short time frame! I achieved Level 2 Bookkeeping within 7 weeks, with no prior knowledge at all, which is testament to how great McArthur Online is”.

“McArthur Online was a big help in me passing my exams, I was able to work at my pace and do things my way while still having a good amount of help when I was stuck. The material was explained in a simple way that is easy to understand but they were always at hand to go through things when I had questions. I can’t recommend them enough”

There are a large number of training providers on the AAT website but you’d be hard pushed to find a more thorough and personable service that McArthur Online Training provide.  Both Jon and Emma are available for what seems like all of the time if you need any assistance.

I was completely new to Bookkeeping before I started with McArthur Online and was full of trepidation, I needn’t have worried as I gained a Distinction for my Level 2 Certificate, mostly down to the way the syllabus is worked through and explained by Jon on the pre-recorded lessons.

Their website is easy to navigate, and they also provide run through examples of the AAT trial exams to help with your revision.  I enjoyed studying with McArthur Online so much I’ve now signed up with them for my Level 3 Bookkeeping.  Well done guys, great job.

I’m very happy I chose McArthur Online training to help me succeed in achieving Level 2 Bookkeeping within 2 months with a Merit.

It is very flexible to study at home and with the recorded lessons which you can watch over and over again, Jon’s lessons are easy to understand and follow, as a foreigner I felt very confident, besides Jon is a very responsible teacher and will answer your questions within 5 mins. Overall thanks to Emma who helped me with the steps to the course and thanks to Jon, I will continue studying Level 3 with you.

I’ve always been very sceptical about distance learning. I was afraid of not being properly taught by the tutor. Since the very first email, Jon and Emma have been very kind and helpful to answer all my doubts, while many other providers took days to reply. Having direct contact here makes me feel at ease.

I also have a disability that impacts my focus and I found video lectures very detailed, easy to understand and with a lot of practical examples. I’m glad I chose McArthur Online! I’ve recently enrolled for Level 3.

As I begin the Level 3 Advanced Bookkeeping course, I think back to making my way through the first two courses and know I am 100% in the right hands when it comes to studying for a new career. McArthur Online has been an absolute pleasure to work with from the very beginning.

Emma has been incredibly helpful with all my queries and is always just a quick email away, and Jon’s recorded lessons are a total blessing and make me feel completely at ease with what would otherwise seem a daunting course. Everything I’ve experienced here has just filled me with so much confidence and I simply could not recommend them enough!

The online training is very well structured, exam kits are very close to real exam questions. Video-lessons are thoroughly comprehensive, my tutor was very good always giving vivid explanations. And of course my special thanks to Emma for her quick support and help she provided during my studying.

I haven’t found a better online course for such a good price!

I’m delighted I chose McArthur Online! Tutor’s training videos and delivery style is excellent; he brings the (often dry) content to life and his memorable voice really sticks in your head (which is exactly what I needed during both exams).

I found Emma’s admin (and moral) support invaluable. I had no prior knowledge of bookkeeping before I started this course nor faith in my mathematical abilities. This qualification will make all the difference to my career.

After 9 years as a stay at home mum I wanted a career I could easily fit in around my family. A friend suggested I retrain as a bookkeeper, however, due to family commitments it needed to be a course I could access online and at my own pace.
After googling the subject and looking at all the options available I chose McArthur online and have had no regrets in making that decision.   My timing was off to start with as I choose this new study path 2 months before lockdown and so my study time took a back seat for homeschooling.

However, I finally got back on track and completed the course this past week with a pass. Emma has been fantastic every step in the way answering my questions even on weekends and I found Jon’s online tutorials were well planned both in content and length. It also helps that he explains the information in a very easy to understand way for the absolute beginner.

In fact I was so impressed I am about to sign up to do a further course with them!

I am a Filipina who moved to the UK with my family in December 2021. Trying to find something to do while settling into a new country, I decided to start studying again having been a full-time mum for 8 years. My husband is a Chartered Accountant and we are thinking of setting up our own practice, so I decided to get a qualification which is related to accounting. Bookkeeping is the one I went for. After searching for providers online, I found McArthur Online to be one of the best based on the reviews I’ve read, so I went with them.

From enrolment to sitting the exams, everything went smoothly, and they couldn’t be more helpful. The lessons are well laid out making it easier to understand. The success of my Level 2 Bookkeeping qualification is mainly because of how McArthur online lessons are structured, and the availability of tutors (human interaction) at any time when we need more explanation. I am now planning my Level 3 with them in August, and maybe more courses in the future. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you!

I completed AAT Foundation Certificate in Bookkeeping (Level 2) with McArthur Online to gain a qualification to support my role. The online and printed materials received were easy to follow and informative.

The tutor and administration support are quick to reply and help with any queries. I have now signed up for AAT Level 3 Certificate in Bookkeeping Q2022 with McArthur Online and would recommend them to anyone.

I previously studied Level 1 Bookkeeping with McArthur Online and am almost half of the way through Level 2. The course materials they provide and teach through are great. It is all broken down into manageable chunks. Anything that is a little more complicated, Jon manages to explain in different ways to help your understanding.

Now that I am at Level 2 and learning in more depth, they have started providing additional practice materials, which I have found really useful to fully understand what I’m being taught. The service you get is fabulous. I have needed to contact Emma several times – she always responds quickly and is very friendly and helpful. On top of that, their prices are also incredibly competitive compared to other providers. I would highly recommend them.

Having never studied online before I was apprehensive to start but it’s been a great experience! The lessons were easy to follow and well explained. Whilst the lessons were easy to follow and broke the material down well, it was good to know if I was struggling Jon was available for further help. Communication with Emma has been quick and friendly throughout which is helpful.

Will hopefully be back to study further!”

A brilliant course which I would definitely recommend. I chose this company as they were recommended to me by a work colleague. I did the Level 2 bookkeeping alongside working full time and my other hobbies. It fitted in well but it’s important to have some time you can set aside to dedicate and focus on studying.

The tutors are great and offer plenty of support. The online tutorials give you everything you need and guide you through step by step. The exams were also super easy to book. If I decide to do the next level, I will definitely stick with McArthur Online.

I am pleased to have progressed with my studies and pass Level 2 Bookkeeping. With the detailed course material, I managed to study and pass my exams in under 6 weeks overall, when work allowed. I have found McArthur Online to be one of the best training providers I’ve used and will be continuing to further my studies with them.

II have recently achieved my AAT Level 2 in Bookkeeping with McArthur Online Learning. They have provided a brilliant, friendly and thorough course leaving me feeling prepared for the assessments. All video tutorials are easy to watch and Jon explains all aspects in each unit clearly with lots of explanations. They have also provided lots of additional study material too and were available anytime for an questions and queries that I was struggling with.

Having an allocated tutor to contact really helped reassure me and made the course feel more personal. The course has worked perfectly around my part time job and being a mum, as I can pick and choose when to study, at my own pace.

I am looking forward to studying Level 3 in Bookkeeping now with McArthur Online after such an enjoyable Level 2 course.

I recently completed the AAT level 2 bookkeeping course with McArthur Online. The tutorials were very clear, detailed, and easy to follow. The topics were well broken down with questions to answer after each video to ensure you understood what was being taught. This made it very easy for me to complete the course at my own pace with 2 young children at home.

Their customer service is great, and Emma replies to emails very quickly and is very personable.

I highly recommend studying with McArthur online and look forward to studying level 3 with them.
