KPMG School Leavers Scheme - One question for people with experience?Hey guys,
I'm just wondering, for those of you who've done a school leavers scheme at KPMG, what sorts of activities did you partake in during your first year?
Much appreciated -

Re: KPMG School Leavers Scheme - One question for people with experience?Sorry, but that's incorrect. It depends on which school leavers scheme the OP means.(Original post by Lawlet)
this is a scheme which only launched this year... do your research before asking questions in the future.
I can't help the OP though as I didn't do it. They're treated pretty much the same as graduates after a year or two though. -

Re: KPMG School Leavers Scheme - One question for people with experience?There's a scheme which for tax, does CA and CTA and for audit, does ACCA or ACA over 5 years (I believe).(Original post by Lawlet)

It's called the school leaver programme. I work along side people who are on it and we gave input on the new scheme too

Re: KPMG School Leavers Scheme - One question for people with experience?The school leavers in my department are doing the same work the graduates are. No difference at all.
In Tax the programme was 5 years and did CA and CTA straight from A levels.
As people above have mentioned this has been replaced recently with a new school leaver programme that does a degree plus 1 qualification. I do not think that the original programme is continuing.
OP - if you are asking about the first year on the new scheme, this may differ (slightly) to the work the grads get as you are not in the office as much. But this is yet to be seen! -
