Abstract

Students' perception to learning a subject is crucial for deeper learning. Accounting is one of the scarce skills but a field which gives lucrative career options leading to higher enrollment worldwide. The same is true for Namibia as numerous studies highlight the accounting skills shortages. There is no doubt that accounting education can boost economic growth and should be seriously undertaken. Yet, accounting departments of universities in emerging economies face huge challenges in learning, teaching and student performance. Adopting a survey research design, the aim of this research is to examine the student's perception are challenges in learning accounting in Namibian context and provide strategies for improving the learning process to ensure better performance. The findings reflect that some of the major challenges perceived include inadequate resources, textbooks, poor career guidance, etc.
