School Leavers' Programme (KPMG)

Audit School and College Leaver Programme (KPMG)

KPMG, the professional services firm, in partnership with Durham University and ICAEW (Institute of Chartered Accountants, England and Wales) have designed a unique programme incorporating work and study.

The innovative six year programme offers an alternative to the traditional university route. Students study part time for three years and then full time in year four, before graduating with a BSc in Accounting. Two further years will see students achieve full Chartered Accountant status through the ICAEW.

Students are employed by KPMG from the outset, working as part of the Audit team and earning a starting salary of around £20,000 (in London). KPMG also cover tuition and University accommodation costs, as well as professional qualification fees.

We are delighted to welcome students on the Audit School and College Leaver Programme, as members of Stephenson College.
