Assessment Of An Accounting Information Systems Curriculum: An Analysis Of The International Federation Of Accountants International Education Guideline No. 11

Abstract

This paper evaluates our current Accounting Information Systems (AIS) curriculum, developed using a Model-Oriented, Tool-Enhanced (MOTE) framework, by comparing it to the 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 evaluation resulted in suggestions for improvements to our existing curriculum. An analysis of the guideline was also completed.
