Vocational Schools are higher education institutions established to meet the socio - economic needs of the country and to train the intermediary (in demand) personnel. Just as the business world has expectations from vocational education, vocational school students also have expectations from vocational education. The need for the study of accounting education in Vocational Schools of Higher Education (VSOHE), which have assumed an important mission in the development of the countries, from the perspective of the students constitutes the basis of this research. It is believed that this work, which emphasizes what kind of structuring is necessary to raise students' awareness in this regard, will be an important source in the literature. In the study, the general situation and problems of Vocational Schools of Higher Education in Turkey were discussed, the reasons for choosing the programs of the students studying in the Accounting Programs of the VSOHE affiliated to Kocaeli University were revealed, and the compatibility of the accounting education they received with their future goals was determined. To this end, the students in the VSOHE formed the sample of the study. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and quantitative data analysis methods.},author={Ahmet YANIK-& Nurcan GÜNCE & Gönül KONAKAY},year={2017},journal={Journal of Academic Value Studies (JAVStudies)}}
