Testimonial
My own experiences of studying accounting at LYIT is that the work you put in gets well rewarded. Graduating with a first class honours degree in October 2014 made my job search a lot easier and helped me secure my first position as a trainee chartered accountant with a practice in Letterkenny. The course provided me with the skills and competencies required to begin training as an accountant. In the final year of my degree myself and 3 classmates won the Irish national final of the CIMA Global Business Challenge and then embarked on a once in a lifetime trip to Mumbai, India to represent Ireland and ATU Donegal in the global competition competing against 25 other countries. Competing against the world’s best future business leaders gave a unique perspective on just how strong the accounting education we received at ATU Donegal was.
