Kalıpların Dışına Çıkmak: Yetkinlik Odaklı Muhasebe Eğitimi

Öz:
Muhasebe eğitiminin temel hedefi, öğrencilere başarılı bir mesleki yaşama sahip olmak için gerekli yetkinliklerikazandırmaktır. Farklı yetkinliklerin varlığı, çalışma ortamında karşılaşılan zorlukların çözümünde farklı yönlerdenyardımcı olduğu için işverenler tarafından gerekli görülmektedir. Bir başka ifadeyle işverenler, mesleki teknik bilginin yanısıra "kalıpların dışında" düşünebilen, iletişim, takım çalışması, liderlik gibi becerilere sahip kişileri tercih etmektedirler. Budurum, muhasebe mezunlarının sahip oldukları yetkinlikler ile potansiyel işverenleri tarafından aranan yetkinlikler arasındabir uyuşmazlık olup olmadığı konusunu gündeme getirmektedir.Günümüzde muhasebe, artık sadece bir destek fonksiyonu olarak görülmemekte, kurumsal performans yönetimindeetkin rol almaktadır. Bu dönüşüm, mesleki başarının belirleyicilerini de etkilemektedir. Bu bağlamda, muhasebenin değerönerisine, bir başka ifadeyle muhasebe çalışanlarının işletmelere nasıl değer kattığına ilişkin stratejik bir bakış açısıgeliştirilmeli ve üniversitelerde bu değer önerisine dayalı müfredatlar oluşturulmalıdır. Bu çalışmada muhasebenin değişenrolünün muhasebe eğitimine etkileri, mevcut muhasebe eğitim sürecindeki sorunlar ve yetkinlik kazanımının eğitim sürecineentegrasyonu incelenmiştir. Çalışma, literatür taramasına dayalı nitel bir çalışmadır ve muhasebe eğitimine yönelikeleştiriler vurgulanarak, muhasebe eğitiminde değişimin artık kaçınılmaz olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

Going Outside the Box: Competency-Focused Accounting Education

Öz:
The main aim of accounting education is to provide students the competencies necessary to have a successful professional life. The existence of different competencies is demanded by employers as it helps in different ways in solving challenges in the workplace. In other words, besides having professional technical knowledge, employers prefer people that can “think outside the box" with skills such as communication, teamwork, leadership. This raises the question of whether there is a conflict between the competencies of accounting graduates and the competencies sought by potential employers. Today, accounting is no longer appears to be a support function, but it plays an active role in enterprise performance management. This transformation has great influence in defining the determinants of professional success. In this context, a strategic perspective on the accounting’s value proposition, that is, how accountants add value to the organizations should be developed and curricula based on this value proposition should be established in universities. In this study, the effects of changing role of accounting on accounting education, the problems in existing accounting education process and integration of competence acquisition into education process are examined. The study is a qualitative study based on literature review and by emphasizing criticism on accounting education it is concluded that the change in accounting education has become inevitable.
