The purpose of this article was to analyze the perception of Accounting academics about the role of the higher education institution in your professional qualification. As for the methodological procedures, the research is classified with a quantitative approach, descriptive in relation to the objectives and survey according to the procedures. As a data collection instrument, a questionnaire with 17 (seventeen) closed questions was applied, adapted from the studies by Degenhart, Turra and Biavatti (2016), Mathias, Serafim Júnior, Besen and Araujo (2018) and Moura and Lima Filho (2019 ), electronically between April and May 2020 and validated by three professors in the field. The population consists of 101 students enrolled in the Accounting Sciences course at a community university in Santa Catarina, in 2020/1. The sample comprised 56 students who answered the questionnaire properly, which corresponds to 55.44% of the population. The data were tabulated using Google Forms® and the technique used for data analysis was descriptive statistics, through the distribution of relative frequency. The main results revealed that academics consider that the training given by the university is compatible with that required by the job market, as well as facilitating the student's entry into professional practice, in addition to bringing specific content worked during the course as preparation of attributes, skills and abilities to future bachelors in Accounting.
