Charges

1

Help identify graduate tax course syllabi that can be added to the online syllabus exchange program. In additional to syllabi, begin to build a database of various class projects that can be used to help ATA members supplement their existing tax courses materials.

2

Work with the Teaching Resources Committee to develop the online exchange of assessment material that is being used in tax courses.

3

If requested, work the Midyear Meeting Committee, Annual Program Committee or Undergraduate Assessment and Accreditation Committee to help develop sessions related to curriculum and/ or accreditation issues.

4

Investigate what accounting programs are doing to meet the AACSB requirements for assessment. Specifically, how is assessment being conducted in graduate tax programs and used in graduate tax courses.

5

Review any changes to AACSB accreditation standards on graduate programs as well as the role of tax in graduate accounting programs.

6

Consider accreditation and curricular issues that relate to the changes in the CPA exam.

7

Continue to monitor the NASBA proposal for the accounting curriculum. Determine its impact on accounting education and whether the ATA should also comment on the issue.
