What was Ward Cleaver's occupation?

I don't know if they ever specifically mentioned it, but I always assumed he was an accountant. Somebody post some confirmation or other possible guesses..

I did read somewhere that Ward worked for an accounting firm.Although(chuckle)you have to see many episodes to find out,because Ward's job was probably only mentioned once.

i guess an engineer; he was one in the seabees, he was the best kite builder in shaker heights, and was almost a commercial artist. Two framed prints on his office wall are a bridge and a building.

In the episode where Lump drives Wally's dad's car to the track meet and they take route 7 (there is one that runs along Ohio and West Virginia border on the Ohio side, also interesting to note that there is a "Beavertown" along the route as well as a Beaver Creek State Park, but didn't locate Camelback Cutoff), there are several shots of Mr. Cleaver in his office and it looks like a DIPLOMA or something hanging on the wall behind him!! I have a 52" screen t.v., but I still couldn't quite make out the text. Anybody have a bigger screen or the technology to read the diploma to tell us what Ward's degree was?
