Program design allows you to continue from one level to another in a building block format that saves you time and money. Courses for the one-semester Accounting Clerk Certificate apply toward the Accounting Assistant Certificate, which you can earn the following semester — and then apply toward the associate degree. You can also just take accounting courses to strengthen your overall education, or select electives in areas of special interest.
