What is the State of Accountancy Education?

The accounting profession is expanding to address broader accountability, especially in ESG issues. While accounting academia has been slow to embrace these changes, there’s a growing need for research and education on how businesses impact external factors like climate change. Accounting plays a vital role in decision-making and guiding long-term value creation. Future graduates should understand business operations, ESG impacts, and value creation, evolving from traditional financial expertise to broader business stewardship.
