Higher National is one of the best-known qualifications that edexcel
offers. It's an undergraduate qualification that is roughly equivalent to two third of a degree.

Higher National Diploma in Accounting is validated and awarded by edexcel - UK's largest awarding body. HND Accounting has been written, developed and designed by BiMS. In April 2009, HND Accounting received ACCA Accreditation for exemption from all papers of CAT (T1-T10), ACCA Knowledge Module (F1, F2, F3) and three papers of ACCA Skills Module (F4, F5, F6).

I am delighted to be part of the certificate award ceremony at BiMS and to meet all the 2008 graduates. In a relatively short period of time, BiMS has achieved a significant position in its delivery of international education and has emerged as one of the top business education institutions in Bangladesh. The graduates have been carefully guided through a well-structured international curriculum by their Edexcel-trained, high quality teachers - a curriculum which should serve the country's current and future business and accounting needs. These successful graduates will undoubtedly reach the pinnacle of their worthy ambitions, thereby enhancing the reputation of BiMS within Bangladesh. I extend my warmest congratulations to the HNC/HND graduates, to their parents, their teachers and to BiMS itself. I wish them the very best of luck in their further higher education studies and in their chosen careers.
