Abstract

The accounting profession is undergoing profound transformation driven by digitalization, globalization, automation, and data-driven decision-making. Traditional accounting education models, largely focused on bookkeeping, compliance, and static financial reporting, are increasingly inadequate for preparing graduates to operate in the digital global economy. This research paper reimagines accounting education by examining how emerging technologies, global business practices, and evolving professional expectations are reshaping required competencies. Drawing on an extensive review of international literature, professional standards, and educational reform frameworks, the study identifies critical gaps in existing curricula and proposes a future-oriented model of accounting education. The paper emphasizes digital literacy, data analytics, global competence, ethical judgment, and lifelong learning as foundational pillars. A conceptual framework is presented to guide curriculum redesign, pedagogical innovation, and assessment reform. The study offers strategic recommendations for educators, institutions, and policymakers seeking to future-proof accounting education.
