Abstract
The dynamic growth of global markets in recent years has spurred a demand for new knowledge and skills. Each advance in technology, systems, and processes reaffirms that need. For students to succeed, they must learn how the global marketplace functions and adapt to different ways of thinking and working. Accounting is one discipline that is poised to meet these challenges of the developing global workplace.
