In this blog, I would like to tell you how to be professional in accounting field . I think, you have already known guys, yeah , one of them is getting a professional certification which recognized by national and international. 

 

So due to coronavirus moment I must study in online class yet it doesn't mean that I stop developing myself . In online class I got information from my professor about Accounting competency professional test. She asked me to join and with pleasure I joined it 😊. Frankly , I didn't have confidence to join it. Underrate myself. Yet, I forced myself to get out of my comfort zone. I did self-talk .

When I was first semester, my professors have already said about this test as it is totally vital to my career as accountant.

But I have never imagined if I join it in my fifth semester because my knowledge is not enough. But, do you know guys . The test wasn't as scary as I thought .

 

professional certification is huge, but In this moment I followed the test from BNPSP (Badan Nasional Sertifikasi Profesi) but in english BNSP (National Agency for Professional Certification).

So why it's necessary in accounting field ?

If you can pass this test moreover you get certificate . You are going to have lots of advantages.

 

Before I jump to reveal the benefits of having this certificate . I am going to define a lit bit about this certificate .

Competence job certification is the systematic and objective certification process through work-based competence tests that refer to skkni or international and special standards. 

 

Benefits of certification BNSP

 In this advanced era, competition for the industrial world is increasingly difficult and competition for more and more good comes from a variety of enterprises. In order to compete and to find a favorable situation in the world's economic competitiveness in modern times, each labor force must be capable of legal ability and competence.

 Each individual, when able to understand most of the expertise and expertise on the field he has taken, as well as legalization of the legal if the work force isa master, would not it be possible for the competency to find an easier career, even for the next one?

 

 To make that goal, countries build and also build the national body of certification of the profession (BNSP) to run the certification program of the BNSP profession. The certification of this profession can be used as reference and evidence that all relations have good expertise in the field of labor, the BNSP certification is in its nature proven and recognized by law and national.

 

 Professional certification can not only be used to seek only domestic employment, but it can be used to provide opportunities for international careers, as well as other countries' approval.

5) Send money to BNPSP bank account .

Basically , I need to send Rp.1000.000 .but Alhamdulilah I got subsidy from my country so that's why I just pay Rp.30.000 .

All the requirements, you need to send to BNPSP email and you have to bring photocopy of them when you want to follow the test .

how many tests were tested ?

There are 3 test.

2) Answer the accounting cases in software.

I get one accounting case so the question is about case in service company moreover I need to make financial report .

If you are accounting student you don't wonder about this word "Balance or not Balance" . So in this test i need to make the financial report is balance moreover my answer is same with the assessor . If my answer was not same . I would fail this test .
