I'm 28 and wanting to make a career change in to accounting. What is the fastest way to do it?

I'm from IT, but worked for a couple of IT firms. Being in this firm, I had to familiarise myself with accounting softwares and how to use them. I gained an interest in them, and now hope to shift to it. Where do I start?

It is never too late to have a career change.

You can try to apply for a junior accounting role to start off. At the same time, do consider to get a part time degree or ACCA.
