My name is Michael Ackermann and I have been working as a part-time lecturer for several years. For about a year now, I have been responsible as course director for the further education course Expert in Accounting and Controlling at the KV Basel business school, which is offered in cooperation with the Controller Academy. As a qualified auditor and qualified business economist with many years of experience as Head of Finance and Controlling, I now work full-time as an independent entrepreneur in financial management consulting.
The Expert in Accounting and Controlling course prepares participants for a higher professional examination over five semesters. In this respect, in addition to appropriate motivation, adequate prior education and relevant professional experience must also be present. At the time of taking the federal examination, this professional experience must be between two and five years, depending on the previous education. A typical previous qualification is either a professional certificate from a professional examination (e.g. finance/accounting or fiduciary specialist), a university of applied sciences, a higher technical college or a university degree.
The Expert in Accounting and Controlling course trains future decision-makers and specialists in accounting and controlling. Typical functions after the accounting and controlling course could be
The Expert in Accounting and Controlling course is very broad and in-depth. Participants become sought-after experts in the field of accounting and controlling. In 5 semesters and around 700 lessons, participants receive further training in Swiss and international accounting, controlling, corporate finance, taxes, leadership and data management. From my professional experience as Head of Finance, I can judge very well what people need to bring to a responsible finance function. I have always enjoyed working with graduates of the Expert in Accounting and Controlling course because the participants are highly qualified and have a strong track record.
The Expert in Accounting and Controlling course is subject-financed. This means that participants receive around half of the costs back from the federal government when they take the federal examination. Taking this federal contribution into account, the excellent further training at the KV Basel business school still costs the participant around CHF 10,000.
We offer the continuing education course Expert in Accounting and Controlling at the KV Basel business school in close cooperation with the Controller Academy. We often use the same lecturers and location assessments as well as identical guidelines. The great advantage is that students from the region of Northwestern Switzerland do not have a long journey to the KV Basel business school, as lessons take place a 5-minute walk from the SBB train station in Basel. Furthermore - and this is an important advantage for prospective experts in accounting and controlling - our classes are not very large, so that the exchange between students and lecturers remains optimal.
