Md - accents don't matter. It's your ability to be able to converse, be articulate and be understood that matters. Also - you can't 'learn an accent'. If you spend long enough in a particular country - you might pick up an 'accent' - but that is not automatic. 

I am British - and I'm also a New Zealand Citizen living in Australia. That's a lot of different accents - but I have no problem understanding anyone - and it's easy to pick up on cultural nuances. I have many US colleagues - and spent 4 weeks at the Johns Hopkins University last year. Apart from having a bit of fun around pronunciation or US versus English spelling of terms - it's the 'same' language.

Dear sir, Dean Whitehead

Thank you very much

I agree with the previous response. It may be worth to add that one should perhaps not learn any accent in a pre-determined way: your own accent is an invaluable one and you should perhaps not attempt to replace it with another one.

I am a Hungarian who has lived in Yorkshire for long. Over the years I have automatically picked up bits and pieces of Yorkshire accent, but I continue to pride myself as a person who kept his strong strong Central European accent, that is, I've never tried to consciously replace my original accent with another one.

Thank you very much.for sharing your experience.

Dear Colleagues,

Good Day,

I think that "ACCENT" is not important, what is important is to understand what the other is saying and to be understood by the other at the same time!!  This is my humble opinion on the matter. 

I prefer the standard British accent due to the nature of my background learning.

Accent is secondary, if you can convey message the job is done.
