Nominations are now open for the 2022 EAA Accounting Education Excellence Award

The award seeks to highlight excellent practice in Accounting Education which addresses thought leadership in the field, innovation and cutting-edge practices in pedagogy, technology and contents.

The first award will be announced at the EAA Annual Congress in Bergen (2022), subject to there being a worthy recipient. Individuals will be able to nominate themselves along with two advocate letters of support. The award winner will receive free conference registration to the following year’s EAA conference with support to cover travel and accommodation of up to 1,250 Euro. The award winner will be asked to facilitate a workshop/classroom session at the Annual Congress to share her/his best practice, and an opportunity to write up this practice into a case study for dissemination on the ARC website.

EAA members who would like to express their interest should apply by emailing baha.diyarov@eiasm.be  by 30 January  2022.

 

On behalf of the Education Committee, we are looking forward to your applications.
