Accounting Technician Apprenticeship Dublin

Start your accounting career with hands-on experience in Dublin

The Accounting Technician Apprenticeship is a two-year work-based learning programme that gives you real experience, recognised qualifications, and a direct pathway into finance. At CFO Services in Dublin, you will learn on the job, study one day a week, and build skills that employers look for immediately. If you’re searching for an Accounting Technician Apprenticeship in Dublin, this is one of the strongest routes you can take.

What the Apprenticeship Offers

This programme is designed for people who want to start a career in accounting through practical experience instead of a traditional classroom-only route.

You will:

  • Work weekly with a registered employer
  • Study release facilitated one day per week at a local college in Dublin
  • Earn a Level 6 QQI Advanced Certificate in Accounting
  • Receive a monthly salary while you learn
  • Have your college tuition fully funded by SOLAS

This is one of Ireland’s most effective pathways to becoming an Accounting Technician.

  • Hands-on experience in a real finance team
  • Paid work while you study
  • A recognised qualification
  • A future in finance roles such as Assistant Accountant or Part-Qualified Accountant

Why This Programme Matters

The Accounting Technician Apprenticeship Dublin pathway gives you something traditional college routes can’t:
experience in real businesses.

You don’t just learn accounting, but how it works in the real world.

You build technical skills, professional habits, and confidence much earlier than most accounting students, and you graduate with both a qualification and 2 years of solid experience.
