Current status and challenges of accounting for public organizations
What is accounting for public organizations such as municipalities, schools, and hospitals? The accounting of these public organizations is currently undergoing reform.
Therefore, while checking the basics of accounting of public organizations, we will promote seminars with the goal of being able to understand what is behind it and to be able to convey it to people in an easy-to-understand manner. In addition, we will provide guidance so that you can write your graduation thesis on the above themes.
