Abstract: The present paper examines the gender balance in accounting education and profession. The existence or non-existence of gender balance has been analyzed based on the primary data collected from the employees and employers of different accounting firms and organizations around Gaborone as well as from secondary data obtained from tertiary institutions in Gaborone, Botswana. The results indicate that women dominate the profession of accounting education more than men. However, the present study proves that women are behind men in terms of progression and development.
