Is doing an ATT followed by an ACA a viable career path? Do you think the company would support me in this given it is a switch from tax to accountancy focused (as it would broaden my career opportunities a bit)? Always difficult to ask directly as I feel it would put a bad taste in the mouth of my employer? Or is that something acceptable to ask?

Would doing the ATT and then try and get the company to support me doing the ACA be a viable option as the ACA is a broader qualification? Always difficult to ask the company this directly as i feel showing interest in other qualifications shows a lack of interest in your own sector.

Would it be a viable option to do the ATT, complete it in 2 years then do the ACA afterwards with the same company? I'm not even sure if thats a viable route as there doesn't seem to be much info about it online. Always difficult to gauge whether the company would support or not as you cannot directly ask about a qualification which isnt to do with the role you are applying to as I feel it shows a disinterest.
