The accounting industry is in a constant state of flux as a result of government legislation, evolving business trends, globalization, and many other factors. Many accounting firms have gone "paperless" and interact with clients via cloud computing, collaborative software, mobile technologies, and social media. Personal skill requirements are also changing. The industry is requiring accountants to have technical knowledge, but also communication, problem-solving, and other skills. New health-care and environmental laws and regulations (especially at the state level) are creating demand for accountants with experience and specialized training in these areas. These are only a few of the developments and trends that will shape the future of the industry.
