Announcing Pre-Conference Workshop on
Excellence in Audit Education
Make plans to join your colleagues for the Auditing Section's first-ever Excellence in Audit Education Workshop scheduled as a Midyear Meeting Pre-Conference session on Thursday, January 17, 2008 from 1:00 – 5:30 pm, in Austin, Texas. The purpose of this Workshop is to bring together audit educators and leaders from the accounting profession to discuss emerging issues related to audit education for future generations of audit professionals. Changes in governance expectations, underlying accounting models, and audit processes and oversight are creating significant education challenges for the profession that affect not only undergraduate and graduate accounting curricula, but also life-long professional learning. The Auditing Section is hosting this Workshop to create a forum for the exchange of ideas and materials about current and future audit education needs. Don't miss this unique opportunity to engage in in-depth discussion and dialogue with other audit educators and leaders of the learning and education functions with several of our profession's largest firms. In addition, this session will feature innovative case materials that are available for your classroom use. Attendance at the workshop will be free—all you need to do is book your travel arrangements to arrive in Austin before the 1:00 pm start. Watch the Midyear Conference website for further details.
