High School
If you are interested in entering this field, take as many math, accounting, and computer classes as possible in high school. You also should take business classes, because forensic accountants must understand basic business procedures in order to assess business interruption losses. Forensic accountants who eventually form their own accounting firms also will need management and administrative skills. Business classes can offer you a solid foundation in these areas.
