Preparation for the accounting profession

Iron Ore Mining Accountants Association

Abstract

The present Report has a double purpose; first to set forth fully the preliminary education and training necessary in preparation for the profession of public accountancy, and secondly to outline broadly the essentials of a practical training in the professional field. A consideration of the preliminary steps is inclusive of suggestions concerning natural and professional requirements. The second step goes on from the point of the beginner's entrance into the public accountant's office and his development from that stage.
