St. Cloud Times — To prepare profit and loss statements, an accountant needs a specific set of data and analytical skills.
To be truly successful, an accountant also needs high-level transferable skills such as communications, evidence-based reasoning, problem solving, global understanding and a sense of social responsibility so they can contribute with integrity to their workplaces and to their communities.
This is where St. Cloud State University and other institutions of higher education play a prominent role.
