Star Student February 2021: Ruth Button

I graduated from Cardiff University in 2017 and began working as a bookkeeper and payroll assistant for a local Accountancy firm shortly after. I thoroughly enjoyed the bookkeeping work and was offered to do level 2 AAT with Accountancy Learning as a distance learning student. This style of learning worked really well for me as I could fit my studying around work and other activities. I completed level 2 and 3 and have recently completed AAT level 4 as part of an apprenticeship. I am now an accounts assistant at the same Accountancy firm and my AAT studies have equipped me with the skills, knowledge and confidence required for my role. I have been very well supported throughout my studies and apprenticeship by both Pete and Ros. They were both available to ask questions and provide support and guidance when required.
