Data Analytics for Professional Accountants

Data analytics for professional accountants (accounting analytics) is a set of techniques that professional service firms can use to gain insight from their own, client, and other data to make better decisions. In combination with emerging technologies, the promise of data analytics has been described as the fourth industrial revolution. This means that data & analytics skills are becoming increasingly important and central for the provision of professional accounting services. In this course, students will benefit from the interest and promise of accounting analytics techniques by studying the analytical mindset. To further unlock the value of accounting analytics, students will design, perform, interpret, and communicate insight from raw data by developing a practical analytic skillset using multiple analytic software tools.
I am excited to undertake our accounting analytics journey together!
