Accountancy is the practice of an accountant, and interested students are required to complete a required curriculum. A typical education may include classes in both accounting and finance and can be gained at institutions all over the world.

Once you have obtained a graduate degree in business and have significant hands-on experience, the next step is an Executive MBA (EMBA). Programs combine fundamentals such as finance, accounting and marketing with leadership studies to get you into high-level executive and management positions.
