Questions and answers

All those who are interested in the Accounting and Controlling Expert course do so for various reasons. 83 % want to find out whether this further education course meets their own needs. This is shown by the survey conducted by the education platform Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch. On the other hand, 12% of those surveyed gave a recommendation as their reason. 5 % of those surveyed did so because they had been mentioned in job advertisements. The free text response "I know this course well and am looking for an alternative to providers in Zurich" shows another personal reason. A further two statements show a certainty in the choice: "Have made up my mind" and "Already working in accounting".

The difference between the two courses offered to become an expert in accounting and controlling lies in the type of qualification, recognition, duration and intensity, among other things. For example, one of the two courses is a certificate course that only provides you with an internal school certificate, while the other course is a Federal Professional Examination (AFPE), which is federally recognized and opens up far-reaching career opportunities for you, but already requires basic professional skills that must also be proven in the form of educational qualifications.

You do not necessarily have to attend a preparatory course in order to be admitted to the Higher Professional Examination (HFP) to become an expert in accounting and controlling. However, you should be aware that you will not only need to demonstrate a little knowledge in this area for the examination, but that the requirements for candidates are very high in order to be able to fulfill your future professional responsibilities. You can try to pass the exam without a preparation course, but this will cost you an exam fee of currently CHF 3,400 (as of April 2023), which you will have to pay in advance.

You can repeat the exam twice. A preparation course usually lasts three to five semesters, during which you will be trained in detail and prepared for the exam. If you feel that you are able to work on what you need to learn independently over an equally long period of time, you can make the attempt if you have sufficient self-discipline, but experience has shown that this is not recommended. Please find out about the courses and examinations at some schools first, obtain the examination regulations and the guidelines for the HFP diploma in Accounting and Controlling and consider whether you really have sufficient discipline and stamina to meet the examination requirements independently.

An "expert" in accounting and controlling usually has the following responsibilities:

  • Upper squad
  • Responsibility for department and personnel mostly from SMEs
  • Great responsibility within the Group, as accounting and controlling influence the entire company
  • Handling confidential data entails great responsibility
  • Responsible for good personnel management
  • Transparent communication within the company and in an international environment
