2023 Annual Meeting of the American Accounting Association Presentation #3 How the Uniform CPA Examination® Blueprints and the CPA Evolution Model Curriculum Move Accounting Curricula Toward a Competency-Based Education Model. Presenters: Susan Galbreath, Lipscomb University; Charla Long, Competency-Based Education Network Description: Are you in the midst of a curriculum review regarding Uniform CPA Examination® Blueprints and the AICPA and NASBA’s CPA Evolution Model Curriculum? Have you heard of competency-based education but don’t see how it relates to accounting curricula? Join us in this session to see how the blueprints and the model curriculum are moving the accounting curricula toward a CBE format that recognizes the knowledge, skills and competencies required to practice accounting today and in the future. Presentation #4 Introducing ESG in Accounting Curricula Through Assignments in Existing Course. Presenters: Marcy Binkley, Lipscomb University; Timothy Creel, Lipscomb University; Susan Galbreath, Lipscomb University Description: Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) is emerging as an important topic to the accounting profession. However, accounting faculty recognize the difficulty of incorporating ESG subject matter into an otherwise full accounting curriculum. If you are looking for an efficient way to add ESG in your accounting curriculum that doesn’t require an added module or course, join us at this session to discuss ways to use ESG data in assignments in multiple accounting courses. These ESG assignments provide students with exposure to ESG and faculty with current class discussion topics without adding additional requirements to an already full accounting curriculum. How to access the ESG dataset as well as solution files for the assignment examples discussed in the presentation will be provided to those interested.
