For the last few years I've been heavily involved in education. I'm 32 and I'm beginning to feel like if I'm going to make one last big career leap, now is the time to do it. I've always been interested in accounting and particularly in becoming a CPA.

I'm a bit of an introvert and basically looking for a job opportunity where I can make at least 40k a year and not have person-to-person interaction be the primary component of the job (which is why I'm feeling pretty burned out on working in education).

My only experience is a handful of undergraduate classes
I have an undergraduate degree in history and economics. I was also enrolled in an Economics MA program for a while but left due to personal reasons.

What would be the smartest way to approach this kind of career change?
