Writing Skills for Accounting Students

Accountants need a wide range of skills and knowledge to do all the tasks required of them.  This includes not only the technical skills needed to record and report financial information, but also the ability to communicate that information in a useful way to the various users of those reports.

The materials on this site have been developed by the School of Accounting and Finance and the Student Leaning Unit to assist students to develop the necessary communication skills to operate effectively as Accounting students and as professionals in the field of Accounting.  The resources provided focus on the set essay for Accounting Information Systems. 

To access the materials, start with Steps in the Writing Process and follow the links.

More assistance in becoming a better writer is available from the "Reading and Writing" section in the Student Learning Unit pages (see SLU Section Links at top right).
