2. Accounting
Let Central Piedmont Community
College be your gateway to
accounting.
The Accounting curriculum is designed to
provide you with the knowledge and skills
necessary for employment and growth in the
accounting profession. Using the “language
of business” and technology resources,
accountants assemble, analyze, process and
communicate information about financial
operations.
Our qualified instructors will teach you
important accounting principles, theories
and practices, such as business law, finance
and economics. After building a strong
foundation in these basic skill areas, class
time focuses on the areas of financial analysis,
communications, computer applications, critical
thinking and ethics.
You will be prepared for entry-level accounting
positions with a number of organizations,
including accounting firms, small businesses,
manufacturing firms, banks, hospitals, school
systems and governmental agencies. If you
have additional work experience or education,
you may also qualify for advancement within
the profession.

Science Degree in Accounting (A25100) as
