There is more change happening in Chartered Accountancy education right now than at any point in the profession's history. In this episode, Sinead Fox-Hamilton is joined by Ian Browne, Director of Education at Chartered Accountants Ireland, to step through it all.

Ian explains how the ACA syllabus has been transformed for the modern workplace, with AI, data analytics, automation and sustainability now sitting alongside the technical core, and why skills such as critical thinking, professional scepticism and systems thinking matter more than ever. He shares the story of how the Institute became one of the first professional bodies in the world to move to fully online exams, how adaptive learning is giving every student a personalised pathway through their studies, and what the new modular structure, with three intakes a year, means for anyone planning their route into the profession.

Ian also shares his advice for anyone considering the ACA, and why he believes accountancy, as the language of business, is the best possible launchpad for any career.
