Engineer changing careers to become CPA tax accountant

[LevelUP]

UMPI (CBE format)

UMPI would be your best path for the advanced Accounting credits.

You could I guess only take the 24 credits of accounting though it would be strange not to go ahead and get the full Accounting degree there considering you were serious about doing accounting.

Timeframe:
You could easily do 24-30 credits of UMPI courses in 2-4 months. Then add any time if you plan to do Sophia or Study.com courses.

SNHU (Traditional Education Format)

SNHU's CFP Board-registered online financial planning fulfills all the educational requirements needed to sit for the CFP exam.  (you'll still need work experience later to be a CFP)

Timeframe:
You could easily do 30 credits of SNHU courses in 8 to 10 months. Then add any time if you plan to do Sophia or Study.com courses.

Note:
General Education requirements are waived at UMPI or SNHU if you have a bachelor's degree.
