You can earn an entire degree in accounting online. College programs completed through our distance education program provide the same thorough training as those offered on campus, but you will never need to set foot in a classroom.
- Online accounting classes save time and money — focus on college, not on getting to college.
- You can earn an Associate in Accounting & Tax Specialist degree in two years or less.
Accounting online — college on your terms
At UCC, we make it possible for accounting students to achieve their educational goals as efficiently as possible — while receiving thorough, practical training in the fundamentals of accounting and taxation. One way in which we do that is by providing online education alternatives. Students can complete all coursework for the Associate in Accounting and Tax Specialist degree without ever visiting a campus. Others choose to complete some coursework online and some in classrooms at our three campus locations (West Jordan/Salt Lake City, Layton and Orem).
Contact us for more information about this flexible alternative. A representative will be happy to discuss program requirements and help you determine how online courses will fit into your accounting program. This “distance learning” alternative may be the piece that makes it possible for you to complete your degree and embark on a rewarding career in accounting.
Accounting courses offered online
All accounting courses required for UCC’s associate degree program, as well as the business and general education courses necessary to complete the elective requirements for the degree, are offered online through Globe Education Network. Study payroll, taxation, contracts, business law, economics, finance, business management, communications and accounting online, working with instructors who have extensive professional experience in the subjects they teach.
One of the last courses you take will be an ACAT exam review, preparing you to sit for accounting certification exams and add valuable professional credentials to your resume.
Support for online learners
Accounting is a challenging field. As an online student at UCC, you will have access to the resources you need to master demanding coursework. Class sizes are small, and instructors have the time to respond promptly when you have concerns or questions. Using a message board, student e-mail and instant messaging, you will be able to work with fellow students to solve the practical, realistic problems that are key elements of every course. You will have the opportunity to develop professional relationships with accounting students and experienced professionals from a broad geographic area, and will have access to an extensive online library and tutoring services.
All you need is your computer and your enthusiasm
Online studies require a student to have basic computer skills and access to the Internet. What will it take to complete the picture for you? Find out more about an online accounting degree program at Utah Career College, the place where every student is special. A representative will be happy to walk you through a virtual tour of BlackboardTM, the Internet-based educational software you will use as an online learner. When you are ready to enroll, the representative will help you with all administrative processes.
