Students, managers or aspiring managers who are keen to progress in their chosen career and want to broaden their knowledge, improve their skills and increase their competence in Accounting and Finance disciplines and functions.

The entry criteria for the College’s Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and Finance is designed to offer a number of entry routes, so that each applicant’s previously certificated academic qualifications, prior learning experience and experiential skills can be taken fully into account when determining whether an offer of a place to study can be made. Prior to entering the College’s Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and Finance programme, applicants are normally expected to be able to demonstrate a minimum of a Maltese matriculation certificate (or equivalent qualifications), with two subjects at an advanced level, three other subjects at an intermediate level and Systems of Knowledge, and a pass at Grade 5 or better in the English Language Secondary Education Certificate. If the prospective student is not in possession of a secondary education certificate in English, they may be asked by the College to demonstrate their English Language competence. Alternatively, a prospective student can be admitted with three subjects at Advanced Level (MQF 4) (or equivalent qualifications), and a pass at Grade 5 or better in the English Language Secondary Education Certificate.

Module Teaching & Assessment for all modules except Dissertation

The module will be delivered through a flexible combination of modern face-to-face lectures, webinars, seminars and discussion forums, tutorials, group work, case studies, guest speakers, organisational visits and independent study. Delivery of the module has close regard to the needs of learners. Accordingly, much of the learning is either delivered at times to suit those learners who may have day time employment or child care commitments or made available in a supported teaching format. At all times, the views and needs of students are taken into account. By means of example, theoretical concepts might typically be delivered to students in modern face-to-face lecture formats which may then be further developed through subsequent interactions based around small group seminars, group case study analysis and digital discussions. Modern face-to-face and interactive learning sessions encourage students to critically examine key elements of business and management. In addition to attendance at formal learning sessions, students are expected to undertake independent self-study in order to support their individual learning journeys.

The assessment strategy for the module is designed to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate both the theoretical and practical skills they have developed in the module. Thus, the summative assessments for this module consist of:

• An in-semester test and a final examination.
• The in-semester test (25% of the final module mark) lasts for 90 minutes and is a mix of multiple-choice and open-ended questions.

The final two-hour examination (75% of final mark) consists of four multi-part questions, two of which should be answered. It is designed to reflect the learning outcomes.

Module Teaching & Assessment for Dissertation

Each student will be allocated a supervisor who will help them with the development of their project proposal, oversee progress with the project, comment as appropriate on draft materials produced by the student and be available to assist the student with the project, as appropriate.

The final year major project is assessed via the production of a dissertation which is normally some 12,000 to 15,000 words in length.

Where necessary, a viva voce will be conducted in those instances where the provisional mark is considered to be a marginal pass.

The major project has to include theoretical and critical discussion and is processed through Turnitin Software for Similarity. Students will be provided knowledge and understanding of how Academic Integrity is applied and how the Turnitin Similarity Report will be interpreted by Assessors. Additionally, all assignments must be referenced with appropriate citations using the Harvard Referencing Style Guidelines. Both Academic Integrity and Referencing Style practice will be explained in a 2-hour session provided by the College to all students in the student induction phase prior to the commencement of the programme.

To successfully complete the module an overall pass mark of 40% must be achieved. All assessments will be submitted via the internationally recognised plagiarism software Turnitin.
