Бакалавр по бухгалтерскому учету и управлению бизнесом

The Accounting and Business Management major at ALC has been implemented as part of the new and expanded Business & Entrepreneurship program. The major prepares students to proceed to the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) examination and to pursue careers in public accounting, industrial accounting, governmental accounting, or to go on to pursue graduate studies. Alice Lloyd routinely seeks to help students obtain advanced study beyond their ALC program, which is a practice unique to the College.

Graduates are expected to provide leadership in the region through self-employment, employment in area businesses, governmental agencies, and not-for-profit organizations, and graduate work. It is the College’s hope, as well, that these students will go on to create new ventures in the region that might help to create jobs for others.

Students who want to become certified public accountants (CPAs) must pass the CPA exam.
