Why are practical skills essential?

Though theoretical knowledge of any course you study is essential, practical training in financial processes provides a greater understanding and experience in accounting tasks. Incorporating accounting principles with practical skills into your studies is proven to help you retain knowledge and get a better feel of your work when you get employed. Employers are reluctant to hire an inexperienced fresh graduate with an impressive academic record. They prefer someone with experience, ready to work from day one, without needing to be trained.
