Second, after getting the accounting certificate, you have to take the second grade exam. First, to test the accounting title, you usually get an accounting certificate and a high school education, and you can take the accounting elementary level, which is relatively easy to test. I have a college degree and have worked for five years. After four years of education this year, I can take the accounting intermediate exam. This is a bit difficult, but as long as the method is correct, it is generally promising. Generally, the accounting title examination is registered at the local personnel examination center or the title section of the Personnel Bureau around 1 every year, and the examination will be held in late May.
The third is the registration examination, that is, the examination of certified public accountants and certified tax agents. Among them, the declaration Committee requires a junior college degree, and the conditions for tax declaration are basically the same as those of intermediate accounting, that is, five years in junior college and four years in undergraduate course. These two certificates are relatively difficult, but they are also high in gold content and worth a try. Note that the registration time is around May each year, and the examination time is after September; The tax registration time is 65438+February every year, and the examination time is June of the following year.
Accounting certificate: a necessary stepping stone for career development
Recently, Suntech, the leading Internet education company in China and the largest human resources service organization in the United Nations, has no worries about the future. * * * Joint 20 14 investigated the charging and employment of strugglers in several major cities. This survey is the first joint survey on this market in China. It not only pays attention to the charging status of on-the-job groups with more learners such as self-study, human resource management and accounting, but also pays attention to their career development and salary after obtaining academic qualifications or employment certificates.
The survey came to some unexpected or interesting conclusions. For example, self-taught candidates have the most characteristics of urban strugglers, and their salaries are moderate, so they are the most cost-effective professional groups in the workplace. It is easy for accounting practitioners to start, but the road to the top of the pyramid needs to cross layers of certificates; Human resource management certificate has become the favorite of girls who yearn for petty bourgeoisie because of better working environment, easier tasks and better treatment.
The results of this survey also show that in the workplace competition in big cities, the role of supplementary academic qualifications and employment certificates is becoming more and more prominent, and owning them is like winning the "killer weapon" in the competition.
Accounting certificate: a necessary stepping stone for career development. The demand in small and medium-sized cities is higher than that in big cities.
Accounting is a hot industry in society, and currently ranks seventh in business administration employment. Especially in some small-scale enterprises, there is a great demand for accounting talents.
Nowadays, in the eyes of accounting practitioners, textual research has become the only way for their career development. Some accountants joked that everyone used to ask "Have you eaten?" ; When accountants meet now, they are most concerned about: "Have you verified it?" "How many certificates did you get?" It can be seen that the employment certificate is closely related to the accounting industry.
The entry threshold of accounting industry is relatively low.
The entry threshold for the accounting industry is relatively low. In China, you can engage in accounting as long as you have obtained the accounting qualification certificate. However, there is no academic requirement for accounting qualification, and there is no hard index for qualification examination. Compared with many subjects such as doctor, automation, computer, etc., the accounting entrance examination is much easier, and it does not need advanced mathematics knowledge, mechanical knowledge and electrical knowledge.
It can be said that anyone can take the accounting exam, as long as they study hard and get the qualification certificate.
Accounting candidates: most of them are women, with low academic qualifications and many cashiers.
According to the survey, women account for a large proportion of accounting candidates, accounting for about 60%. Candidates are generally younger, and people under 30 account for more than 60% of the total number. About 40% of the people who were originally engaged in accounting work, most of them are engaged in cashier work, and the purpose of applying for the exam is to engage in real accounting and tax filing; The rest of the non-accounting candidates are mostly engaged in sales, administration, catering and other work.
In terms of education, the survey results show that college education accounts for 25. 17%, college education accounts for 36.24%, undergraduate education accounts for 35.9 1%, and bachelor degree or above accounts for 2.68%.
Proportion of accounting students' academic qualifications
Reality: the proportion of students in small and medium-sized cities is greater than that in big cities.
The survey shows that the proportion of accounting students in small and medium-sized cities such as Zhengzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing and Qingdao is greater than that in big cities such as Beijing.
Distribution ratio of accounting students in cities of different sizes
These students who apply for the accounting professional examination have little requirements for academic qualifications, and the learners are mainly administrators. In this regard, Liu Tongbo, president of Suntech, a leading Internet education company in China, pointed out that this is mainly because these people lack a sense of security in their work and life, and the textual research is just in case, leaving more ways for their future development.
High-level talents in accounting industry are scarce.
Although there are many people with accounting qualifications, there is a great shortage of senior financial personnel, and the requirements of enterprises for senior financial personnel are still quite high. For example, the knowledge required by the chief financial officer of an enterprise includes: financial accounting knowledge, accounting practice, accounting standards for enterprises, etc. Management knowledge is also needed; Understand various laws, such as contract law, guarantee law, bankruptcy law, etc. At the same time, it also needs strong analytical judgment and communication skills.
With the tide of globalization, China has become an important part of the international economy, and internationalization has put forward higher requirements for financial personnel: the requirements for foreign languages are getting higher and higher, and it is necessary to master internationally accepted norms and realize the internationalization of financial personnel. Therefore, obtaining an international accountant certificate has become the goal of many financial personnel.
Generally speaking, accountants must first obtain accounting qualification certificates, and then obtain primary and intermediate certificates; Until certified public accountants, ACCA and other certificates. -In short, although the entry threshold of accounting is low, the requirements for further development are higher. This is a profession that attaches great importance to practical experience and professional skills, and needs to constantly improve professional quality and professional skills.
Great social demand and long career life.
Wang Jian, an expert in human resources at 51 Carefree.com, pointed out that basically every unit needs an accountant, and some units even need several or even dozens of accountants. Compared with other industries, accounting has a wider range of job choices. With the rapid development of social economy, the accounting profession has gradually merged with other occupations, resulting in many new occupations, which also provides more choices for the future development of accounting personnel.
At the same time, the life span of accounting profession is longer than that of general occupation. There is a popular saying in society: the older an accountant is, the more popular he is. There are many old accountants who have worked for decades and have a good income.
The main reasons for this are: accounting does not need too much physical strength and requires less physical conditions. As long as it is not too bad, you can continue to work; Second, accounting is a job that attaches importance to practical experience, which plays a very important role, and the older you are, the richer your experience is. This is the reason why senior accountants are required to be over 40 years old in society. It can be said that the accounting profession is a job with fair income and relatively stable income, which is especially favored by ladies.
Which is more important, accounting, experience or certificate?
Give an inappropriate apple about this question: who said that sitting in a BMW is better than sitting behind a bicycle and laughing? People who cry in a BMW miss laughing behind a bicycle, and cyclists look at BMW and drool. People finally want to sit on a BMW and laugh. The same is true for certificates and work experience. In the end, certificate+experience is the left and right street lamps of Guangming Avenue. Who doesn't want to shine more and shine farther?
Energy and choice are not contradictory. You can pass the exam quickly, and experience needs long-term accumulation. You shouldn't waste 2-3 years of valuable work experience on your concentrated research.
The experience in the first five years of accounting and after 10 is not in an order of magnitude. With little reading and experience, it is impossible for the boss to entrust him with such mindless jobs as cashier and assistant. Long experience I can gain: I know the whole accounting process, the operation of enterprises, the cooperation of different departments, and excel skills (those I learned at school are awesome and useless, and I will return them soon)
If you want to study, the sooner the better, the later you will only have less energy. After the exam, there will be more opportunities and much higher gold content. The longer the exam drags on, the lower the gold content of accumulated work experience.
After working for 5- 10 years, it's time to get married and have children, especially if you still have the energy to do research. No matter what your work experience, you are lucky to have a good sleep. Textual research, dream about it. Of course, it is another matter for you to have a partner who is willing to pay for you without complaining and your parents who are willing to do things for you without charging. However, whether male or female, we still have to be an adult with a conscience. Watching family members pay so much for themselves will also have a heavy psychological burden. We didn't pass the exam, but our family was sorry for ourselves. Even if you are admitted, you will miss your child's growth and cannot make up for it.
But then again, it is a bit difficult on the road of research. Boring full-time exams, self-control, and the days when I lost the rules of daily life were unbearable ... I persisted for three months and honestly went to find a job. Later, I figured it out. The exam is like this. The timing is reasonable. Preview in advance, arrange courses, study hard during working hours, try not to work overtime, and read books when you get home at night. I didn't stay up late or turn on the light. The guarantee is limited. When you have nothing to do at work, think about how to finish the work quickly, economically and efficiently. This kind of work experience will be much better than being silly every day. I used to work as an AP in a large electronics factory, and Nimana had a pile of invoices. I dream of issuing invoices at night, and I am afraid to think of it. The myth that the office never works overtime is also thanks to the excel skills and ERP experience accumulated at that time. )
As far as occupation is concerned, the gold content of early accounting is relatively low-end and repetitive, and many experiences are better than killing will. If you can get access to some slightly complicated' consolidated statements of listed companies', it will be of great help to test CPA and the like. If not, feel free to do research. You can find a stable job with less overtime, less eating and drinking, strive to improve work efficiency, find a study point within 8 hours, plan to study outside 8 hours, and verify your experience.
