The Accounting program offers three levels of programs, all built on the solid foundation of courses in the Career Studies Certificate program. The
programs prepare students for entry-level positions or help students update their skills and knowledge if they are already working in the accounting
field.
The Career Studies Certificate program prepares students for employment as a bookkeeper or as an accounting or auditing clerk. The same hours
meet some of the accounting educational requirements for students who have already earned a baccalaureate degree and wish to sit for the Certified
Public Accountant (CPA) exam. These classes also serve as a unique review mechanism for CPA candidates. Additionally, they meet federal
government guidelines for accounting coursework to qualify for positions or promotion in the government workforce.
Twenty-six credit hours of accounting coursework give a student the necessary accounting skills to sit for the Accountancy and Taxation Exam
(ACAT), which is administered twice a year. Successful completion of the exam enables students to use the description: “Accredited in Accountancy.”
A cooperative education course enables students to earn academic credit while gaining work experience at local sites.
