What is an Associate of Applied Science in Accounting? These courses are often focused on providing students the skills necessary to prepare for a career as an accountant. Sections tend to include discussions of accounting practice, auditing, bookkeeping software, statistics, auditing and business. Depending on the jurisdiction, students might also be required to complete classes in composition, mathematics, physical sciences or public speaking in order to qualify for the degree.

Students might benefit from these in the form of increased productivity in current positions or a better chance for employment in a competitive market.
