Have a Question in Mind?

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you want to know before you apply answered honestly.

Is the Keen Academy diploma actually recognised by employers?

Yes. Keen Academy is an approved centre for OTHM, a UK awarding body regulated by Ofqual, the same government authority that oversees A-Levels and GCSEs in the UK. Your diploma carries full international recognition. Malaysian employers, regional companies, and UK universities all accept it. This is not a random online certificate, it is a verified, government-regulated qualification.

Really zero exams? How does assessment work then?

The OTHM Level 3 Diploma provides a foundation for further academic progression. Upon completion, learners may choose to continue to higher-level qualifications such as the OTHM Level 4 Diploma with an approved provider.

My SPM results weren't great. Can I still apply?

Yes. Keen Academy has a basic entry requirement. You do not need straight As or any specific SPM subjects. As long as you have basic English proficiency, basic secondary school completion certificate, SPM certificate and the commitment to complete your assignments, you are qualified to apply. If you have relevant work experience, that counts too through our RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) pathway. Not sure if you qualify? Talk to our advisor, we'll tell you honestly.

Can I study while working full time?

Yes and many of our students do exactly that. The programme is designed to fit around a working schedule. Most students study in the evenings or on weekends. Because there are no fixed exam dates to stress about, you can manage your study pace without it clashing with your job. 6 months of part-time effort is all it takes to come out the other side with a UK-recognised diploma.

How is this different from ACCA?

ACCA is a prestigious qualification but it requires 13 papers, multiple exam sittings, and 3–5 years of study. The global pass rate for many ACCA papers sits below 50%. Keen Academy's OTHM Level 3 diploma is a faster, coursework-based alternative that is still UK-regulated and globally recognised. It is not a replacement for ACCA at the senior level but if you want to start your accounting career now without years of exam stress, OTHM is the smarter starting point.

What jobs can I apply for after graduating?

After completing your OTHM Level 3 diploma, you are qualified to apply for entry-level accounting roles including Accounts Assistant, Finance Admin, Junior Accountant, Bookkeeper, and Payroll Assistant. These roles exist in every industry from SMEs to large corporations. You graduate job-ready, not just paper-qualified.

Can I go to a UK university after this diploma?

Progression to a UK university degree programme is possible after completing higher-level qualifications; however, entry level (such as Year 1 or Year 2) is subject to each university’s admission requirements and credit recognition policies. Final decisions are made by the respective universities.

How do I apply and when can I start?

Applying is simple. Click Apply Now, fill in a short form, and our advisor will reach out within 24 hours to walk you through the next steps. Intakes run throughout the year but each batch has limited spots. The sooner you apply, the sooner you can start. You could be certified in 6 months from today.
