This paper explores the key role of specialized education for accountants in ensuring effective financial management of EU projects. Given the complexity and stringent regulations that accompany EU project financing, expertise and continuous education of accountants become essential elements for the successful implementation of these projects. The primary goal of this paper is to analyze how specialized educational programs contribute to improving the knowledge and skills of accountants, particularly in the context of monitoring financial flows, precise reporting, cost management, and ensuring transparency. The research findings indicate significant advantages of continuous education for accountants. Educated accountants demonstrate greater compliance with EU regulations, more accurate and transparent financial reporting, and more efficient cost management, all of which contribute to greater financial sustainability of the projects. Additionally, the reduced risk of financial fraud and irregularities further strengthens trust in EU funds and their application. The conclusion of the paper emphasizes that continuous education of accountants is crucial for achieving high quality and success in EU projects. Recommendations include the introduction and maintenance of specialized educational programs and the ongoing professional development of accountants to ensure optimal control and direction of financial flows. Such programs not only increase project efficiency but also ensure that financial resources are used in a way that maximally contributes to achieving development goals and sustainable development.
