The comprehensive curriculum in the HELP University Bachelor of Business (Accounting) (Hons) programme has provided me with a fast track to complete my ACCA programme and a strong foundation towards my career development in the investment industry. The programme has taught me to think strategically and strengthen my analytical skills

The Diploma in Business programme has provided me with a strong foundation to do my Bachelor of Business (Accounting) degree programme. The academic faculty in the diploma and bachelor degree programme are made up of high level industry professionals and academics with active consultancy portfolios. Their invaluable work expertise honed from years of experience have trained me well for my current job

Majoring in accountancy does not restrict my studies to financial and management accounting/reporting, taxation and audit; it also covers economics, marketing, management, finance, law, information technology etc. My lecturers always share their experiences and latest issues in the business world to make the class more interesting and prepare us for the business world. I especially enjoyed the process of completing my independent graduation project which gave me the best opportunity to meet with directors and managers of a number of MNCs, the Big Four, renowned local companies and independent parties. This experience of meeting corporate leaders has prepared me to enter the corporate world

Studying at HELP University has definitely helped gear me towards my current career goals. Besides, I had plenty of opportunities to be more confident and to speak effectively in public. My soft skills such as interpersonal communication have improved tremendously
