What amount of education and training do Accounting and Auditing require?
Most positions, such as those in the Federal government, require a minimum of a Bachelors Degree in Accounting or a field related to Accounting. Meanwhile, some of today’s employers require applicants to hold a Master’s Degree in Accounting; or a Business-Administration Master’s Degree, with a concentration in Accounting. Furthermore, some of today’s colleges and universities focus on training their students in booming specialty professions (i.e. internal auditing). Numerous professional associations today also offer additional training (i.e. professional education courses), to enhance one’s graduate or undergraduate degree.
