Master Comptabilite-Controle-Audit — Comptabilité contrôle audit

Accounting, management control, and audit form one of the core disciplines within business studies, concerned with how organizations record financial activity, monitor performance internally, and verify that financial statements present an accurate picture of the business. A master's program in this field, often abbreviated CCA (Comptabilité, Contrôle, Audit), typically covers financial accounting standards, cost accounting and management control systems, audit methodology, and the regulatory framework governing statutory audits and financial reporting. Students learn to prepare and analyze financial statements, design and evaluate internal control systems, and apply audit procedures used to test the reliability of an organization's accounts. Coursework generally combines technical accounting knowledge with broader management topics such as budgeting, performance measurement, and corporate governance, reflecting the fact that accountants and auditors work closely with management decision-making rather than in isolation from it. Graduates from CCA programs commonly pursue careers as auditors within accounting firms, financial controllers, management accountants, or roles preparing for professional accounting qualifications recognized in France. The training also supports positions in corporate finance departments and consulting firms that advise on financial reporting and internal control matters.

It is a two-year master's degree, taught in French, beginning in September, with yearly tuition of 250 EUR.
