AFAANZ and CA ANZ are proud to present the 2026 AFAANZ Education Forum
What capabilities will accounting educators need in the next decade?
Join colleagues from across Australia and New Zealand to explore this question, hear from leading industry voices, examine emerging trends, and help shape the future of accounting education. This interactive forum will explore the capabilities needed in a rapidly changing environment, including the growing influence of generative AI on teaching and learning. Through discussion and collaboration, participants will contribute to the development of the AFAANZ Accounting Educator Skills Matrix, creating a shared vision for educator capability and future professional development across the discipline.
We’re delighted to welcome two keynote speakers:
- Marcus Bowles – exploring the capabilities of the future-ready accounting educator, including teaching, leadership and influence beyond disciplinary expertise.
- Kayur Patel, PwC New Zealand – sharing an industry perspective on generative AI and the changing capability expectations of the accounting profession.
