Feedback On Developing An AIS Curriculum

Abstract

This paper gathers evidence about an Accounting Information Systems (AIS) curriculum developed using a Model-Oriented, Tool-Enhanced (MOTE) framework.  The evidence was gathered by eliciting the perceptions of employer stakeholders about the curriculum.  The curriculum follows recommendations of the International Federation of Accountants' (IFAC) Guideline No. 11.  The IFAC recommendations offer guidance on the information technology content in accounting curricula and are supported by the AICPA.  The evidence gathered supports the inclusion of most elements of the curriculum.
