A certificate in accounting may teach you the basics of a general ledger, debit/credit posting, etc. I honestly don&#039;t think it will give you the in-depth knowledge required to be a SOX analyst.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

The best place to learn about this sort of stuff is in the real world, not in a classroom.

A question back at you: why do you want to specifically become a SOX expert? If you focus on this too much, there&#039;s a risk that you&#039;ll become redundant when the regulations change again, which seems to happen every few years.
