Students who want to study accounting with a goal of becoming a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or attending business school can begin their education at Clatsop. Increasing regulation of the financial industry is driving demand for well trained accountants with the communication skills to work as part of a team to improve the competitiveness of organizations and businesses.

The Associate of Science, Oregon Transfer (ASOT) degree is the starting point for a transfer student pursuing further study of accounting. Four year schools also produce options for graduates of Clatsop’s Accounting Technician and Business Management Associate of Applied Sciences (AAS) degrees.
