Accountancy Academy 2023
FI Chelmsford Accountancy Summer School is a FREE event open to students with an interest in this industry. If you’re considering a career in finance or accountancy or are just curious about whether this industry is a good fit for you, then these two days will help you to make up your mind.
Following our successful return to an in-centre event in 2022, we are delighted to be offering our 2023 Summer School to all students in years 10 and above. This is is the first time we have extended the age range to include pupils aged 15 and we’re excited to be offering the opportunity for more students to find out more about the world of accountancy.

Why should I attend Accountancy Summer School 2023?
Students attending will get a really clear idea about whether this is a career that might suit them and how they can get started. Equally some students will make up their minds that this is not a route for them. We believe by demonstrating what the industry is about and explaining the roles that are available give attendees a greater understanding to help them make choices about their next steps. We’ll cover both post-school and university routes and will also explain more about apprenticeships in this industry. Learn more about what our Accountancy Academy will cover.
