This certificate program is meant for individuals considering careers in bookkeeping and accounting without committing to a four-year degree program. The program consists of undergraduate courses in accounting, finance and business, and will help students explore the discipline of accounting and gain a basic understanding of accounting principles and techniques. The purpose of the program is to enable students to get entry-level accounting positions in both business and non-profit entities. Part-time students can complete the certificate in four semesters or two years. However, depending on a student’s prior coursework, certain prerequisite courses may be required in order to gain entry into the FIN 330 course. These prerequisites, if required, will increase the length of the program for those students.
