Education for accounting and finance functions in banking

This is a report of a study that is still going on. The study is an empirical inquiry into the categorization of managerial/executive job positions that generally require college education as the minimum qualification for employment in the banking industry. The inquiry is aimed at facilitating the abstraction of accounting and finance concepts and principles underlying the functional responsibilities normally undertaken by persons in those job positions. The ultimate aim is the integration of such concepts and principles in accounting and finance instruction at the university in order to enhance occupational Kenyanization as the college graduates join the country's labour force.
