I have 10 years experience in accounting, now doing MCSE (two to go). Next is Unix/Linux and then Oracle. Is this enough to get into Accounting software consultancy or should also get some Web development courses too?

Are you clear about what you wish to do?
What do you want to consult on, about, to, for, etc.
Hardware,OS's MSCE is enough.
Software, doing what? Buying, developing, manageing, maintaining, all of the above.
I notice no progamming in your skill list.
UNIX is a programmers' OS. But which flavor?
HP, Sun, AIX, need to know the differences.
Will you consult networking (command line)
or usage (GUI). Same for Linux, Red Hat, S.u.S.E., Debian, Caldera.
Are you going to be a "Fat" or "Thin" consulant?
Can you find your way through FrontPage?
A good start before HTML, Java, ASP, CGI, etc.
Do your homework, get a focus, write with clarity, the properly phrased question get the best answer.

Your qualifications already should provide you an entrance into the realm of Business Solution Management systems. A key area is actual experience with implementations. With the average lifecycle of a system being only 3 years, you've probably been exposed a couple of times while in your accounting capacity.

I would suggest that you go to the following website and enter the pertinent information. The site is http://195.24.18.173/

This site is a job site for NavisionDamgaard the leading mid-market vendor for solutions as you seem to be interested in.

Good Luck!
