On October 3, 2025, the lecturers of the Department of Accounting and Taxation took part in the all-Ukrainian round table “DIALOGUE OF THEORY AND PRACTICE: FORMATION OF A COMPETENT AUDITOR OF THE 21ST CENTURY”.
The purpose of the event was to discuss ways to effectively integrate academic education and practical training of auditors in accordance with market needs, modern challenges, and international standards.
Key discussion questions:
– What theoretical concepts are often ignored in practice?
– What practical challenges require theoretical understanding?
– How is the auditing profession changing in the 21st century?
– What skills (soft and hard skills) are key for a modern auditor?
– What needs to be updated in the system of training audit specialists?
– What is the optimal format of cooperation between universities and practices?
– What forms of partnership between universities and audit companies are the most effective (internships, joint projects, guest lectures)?
– How to effectively organize mentoring for students?
– Obtaining the right to conduct auditing activities (graduates who received education abroad).
Thank you for the interesting experience. We hope for further cooperation!
