How to change your lifestyle and professional confidence in the next two years!
An Associate Degree in Accounting provides students with the necessary skills to enter the business field and increase their earnings potential by a half a million dollars over a 40 year working life*. Our accounting program will prepare you for taking on small to medium business accounting records from daily entries through financial statements to tax returns and managerial analysis.
Graduates of the program will be proficient in Windows XP, Quickbooks, Tax Cut software, Microsoft Office including Word, Excel and PowerPoint, as well as packaged accounting software.
Upon graduation, students are prepared to enter the accounting profession in positions that may include: accountant, accounts payable and accounts receivable administrator, administrative assistant, auditor, office manager or tax preparer. Several graduates have also chosen to use their accounting knowledge to begin their own business. We work with Plymouth State University, Lyndon State and locally with Granite State College for students who wish to transfer credits after two years to a four-year college.
We have strong relations with Franklin University in Ohio coordinating a third year of study to be taken at White Mountains Community College, and finishing with a fourth year on-line with Franklin University. This alliance leads to a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration.
