Accounting Boot Camp for College Juniors

We describe a day-long introduction to new accounting majors, which we call a boot camp. Boot camp it is an effort to make juniors more aware of their identity, career purposes and learning resources that are now parts of their world, much of which is not covered explicitly in the accounting curriculum. This paper provides an overview of the activities included in our initial boot camp. In addition, we provide information useful in organizing boot camp type activities at other universities.
