The digital development in the business world entails a change in the accountant's everyday life. Traditional tasks such as accounting and reporting are less time consuming than before, which increases the demand for secondary services, such as good guidance and advice from accountants to their clients.

This also places great demands on general digital competence in a field where technology is constantly being developed and where IT expertise and user competence go hand in hand.

The course is divided into two modules: Digitization and business systems and Digitization and exercise of the accounting function.

Digitization and business systems is about introducing concepts and knowledge about digitization as part of an accountant's everyday life. An introduction is also given to relevant business systems that the accountant must know and be able to use as support functions.

Digitization of the accounting function will mean that the communication between the accountant and the client is changing. The course provides a preparation for an expanded accounting concept - from accounting to consulting. The digital development entails a change in the accountant's everyday life, which will increase the demand for good guidance from the accountant towards his clients.
