Friday, March 24, 2:00 PM ET/1:00 PM CT
Join authors Pennie Bagley of Appalachain State University and Allen Blay of Florida State University in a discussion on the challenges of teaching Auditing. Instructors are faced with the challenge of not only having a large body of standards to cover to prepare students for the Uniform CPA Examination, but also demands from employers to prepare their students for audit practice. In this webinar, the authors discuss ways to integrate audit practice into your auditing courses using resources from the Louwers, et al. 9e textbook. We will show how we use the extensive auto-gradable, author-created data analytics cases, which can be used in a variety of software, including Excel, IDEA, and Alteryx. We also discuss the Updated Auditor and Updated Classroom, two continually updated online supplements that provide instructors with practical and current examples to bring into their classrooms. Finally, we discuss the comprehensive Apollo Shoes case that is designed for instructors who want to simulate an audit and can easily be used piecemeal. Instructors will be provided with a comprehensive chart of resources available by topic, and sample syllabi for both undergraduate and graduate auditing courses.
