Approaching Accounting
Few subjects in Business Administration are approached by students with a greater sense of awe than accounting.
'Abordaje de la Contabilidad' does not feel right to me. Does anyone have a better suggestion? Grateful for all your help.

cómo enfocar la contabilidad
Explanation:
Yo diría "INTRODUCCIÓN A LA CONTABILIDAD", pero por la clasificación de tu pregunta, veo que necesitas usar otro término.

Te sugiero hacer una traducción un poco libre.

Buena suerte,

Te explico rápidamente mi versión.
He traducido al castellano muchísimos manuales de todos tipos.
Cada vez que aparece un gerundio, la duda es la misma.
Y la mejor salida que he encontrado, ha sido anteponer \"Cómo...\"
Ejemplo: Making Amendments => Cómo hacer correcciones
Get it?

primeros pasos en contabilidad


Explanation:
Para los títulos, siempre me ha gustado traducir <approaching> con <primeros pasos en>. Por ejemplo, cuando decimos <primeros pasos en genealogia> o <primeros pasos en informática> o <primeros pasos en la edición digital>, se crea la impresión de que nos vamos a introducir poco a poco e iremos a más en esa materia.

Gratas horas de traducción.
