West Virginia University's Online Graduate Certificate in Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination program prepares you for exciting opportunities in the anti-fraud and forensic accounting profession. Whether your interest is fraud examination, white collar crime, fraudulent financial reporting, or civil litigation, you will master these skills in a team-based on-line environment, equipping you to assume your role in public accounting, law enforcement, industry, government or education.

Our Online Graduate Certificate in Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination program consists of 12 credit hours, taken in four graduate courses over two semesters. Students take a schedule of classes that fit into their busy life style.

While WVU is embracing the online instructional delivery, we are also committed to experiential learning, so two 3-day residencies are required. These residencies will enhance your educational experience by exposing you to practicing experts currently working in the fraud examination and forensic accounting profession. Meeting your classmates and expanding your WVU network adds to the experience.

The online format enables working professionals to take advantage of graduate education without taking a leave of absence from work or being confined to evening or weekend classroom commitments.
