There are many levels of an accounting career. You can get your associates and get hired to do bookkeeping. If you want to run your own accounting firm you need to be a CPA which requires a bachelors degree, one year or 40,000 hours of intern training, and you must pass a 4 part test with a 77% or higher. Each part is 8 hours long and is spanned over 1 year. It costs $1000 to take and you can take it as many times as you would like. Only 15% of people who take this test pass it the first time. Good Luck.
