Articles .,, is primarily hard core work.. it goes around with an on job training methodology.. In most firms you will be joining the assurance and advisory div. and be sent on to a client as an assitant / juinor to help out the Job incharge of the team. Inital work would relate to basic tests as adviced by your job incharge say vouching expenses or completing an audit programme (following a series of steps) for an internal controls walk through. Most of your work will not include planning and client discussions (which you will grow into as a senior or a job incharge)

At a junior's level (for a year atleast) you will be expected to learn a lot of things (so you have a cushion wherein deliverables are concerned) and then implement out of your learning curve at the third or fourth job (audit assignment ie)

Ofocurse all this will be in line with stuff that you have already learn in accounting and audit..

Depending on the qualification you are aiming for and the length of the training programme. In the UK the length of a graduate programme is about 3 years, but this will vary with employers.

Porbationary period would also depend on your co and the programme and also if they are an appoved employer.
