Tip of the Week

While you would be hard pressed to find a complete, free in-depth accounting education online, there are a few free and basic accounting courses available. Websites like accountingcoach.com and wannalearn.com provide basic accounting education online, but not degree-level courses. Do not totally disregard these free online accounting courses, though. For instance, let’s assume you are in a dead-end job or career and think that accounting is a field that might interest you. Before you spend your hard-earned money and time in an online accounting degree program, spend a little time going through a few free online accounting courses to determine if accounting is really what you want. If it isn’t, you have only spent a little time and no money finding out that another field may be better for you. Should you enjoy the subject, you can proceed more confidently in evaluating the variety of online accounting degree programs that are available. You can then find an accredited online accounting degree program that gives you the education you want. It’s a total win-win situation for you.
If you want to go further, you will find Associate's and online Bachelor's degrees in accounting programs that are cost effective and provide a solid education to improve your career track in a short period of time. Pursuing an accounting degree online also gives you the option to continue working while you take your courses.
