The LCCC accounting program will expose you to all of these areas and includes an experiential learning component to enhance your education by developing real-world skills needed by employers.

The program offers short-term certificates that can be earned in one semester as well as an associate degree. Of course, you may choose to further your education beyond LCCC through our University Partnership or transfer programs.
