The qualifications needed for an accounting job can vary depending on your specialization. In any role, you need at least a bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or a closely related field. With the right experience, this degree can transfer to any specialization. However, there are degree programs specifically in forensic accounting. Try to complete an internship in your chosen specialty while still in school. This experience could allow you to gain tax preparation skills or give you insight into the duties of a fraud examiner. After college, you should become a certified public accountant (CPA), which allows you to get many accounting and auditing jobs. Some states or industries make CPA licensing mandatory for particular jobs. There are also more specific certificate programs, like Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE).
