Accounting

The accounting curriculum is designed for persons who seek employment in the accounting field, or for those presently working in the accounting field who desire to increase their knowledge and update their skills.

The two broad areas of accounting are financial and managerial. Financial accounting is concerned with reporting the results of operations of the company to external users such as investors and lenders. Managerial accounting (cost accounting) focuses on providing reports for internal use by management in making operating decisions. The occupational objectives include accounting trainee, accounting technician, junior accountant and accountant. We have four full-time faculty members and numerous adjunct instructors, all of whom have extensive experience in government and the business community.

NOVA has formal articulation agreements for transfer to the B.S. in Management at National Louis University, the B.S. in Accounting at Strayer University, and the B.S. in Business Education at Virginia Tech.
