PGCert in Accounting and Related Services

The Accounting Certificate is meant for people whose first degree is in another field and want accounting competence. Both business and non-business graduates may enroll. Courses can be completed at the university or shown through equivalent coursework elsewhere, with a minimum grade point average. At least half of the accounting curriculum must be taken on this campus. Students without a business degree complete prerequisite courses first, then the required accounting courses. The program is listed in the 2026-2027 academic catalog of California State University, Dominguez Hills in Carson, California. Prospective students should review the catalog entry and speak with an academic advisor about course sequencing, prerequisites and how transfer credit or general education may fit into their plan. Current requirements, course availability and any special admission steps are confirmed by the university and may change between catalog years.
