Description
In October 2023, we hosted a workshop at the annual FEKIS conference held at Handelshögskolan Stockholm. The purpose of the workshop is to present the concept of expectation gap between accounting educators and accounting employers. We collected accounting job announcements published nationwide in Sweden by both large, medium and small accounting employers seeking applicants for entry-level positions in accounting and auditing. We highlighted the requirements and expectations by the employers for the new hirs. During the workshop, we conducted groups discussions of accounting educators. We compared what educators consider to be important for our students and those by the employers.The results are interesting. Although educators and employers agree on most factors, certain aspects differ. This presents an interesting opportunity for research.
