Overview

The professional accounting industry is undergoing a major shift resulting from recent technological advances. The profession now has the ability to access and process large amounts of business data, including unstructured data sources, coupled with innovative analytical software, that extend traditional methods of accounting analytics. Additionally, emerging technologies, such as Robotic Process Automation (RPA), possess capabilities of basic accounting functions that were traditionally performed by humans.

To answer this demand, the University of Connecticut School of Business now offers the Advanced Business Certificate in Accounting Analytics online.

The Advanced Business Certificate in Accounting Analytics, offered in a flexible, online format:

Helps students develop a data mindset, preparing them to interact with data scientists from an accountant’s perspective.
Enables students to develop the skills necessary to apply modern analytical methods yielding descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive accounting information used for business intelligence.
Provides hands-on experience with audit, tax, and financial analytical software such as Alteryx, ACL, Excel, SAS, CRSP, Compustat, and such visualization software as Tableau and Microsoft Power BI.
Focuses on unstructured data, data extraction, data modeling, visualizations and relational databases. Touches upon such topics as fintech, cryptocurrencies, web scraping, and the use of blockchain.
