Less time on data entry, more time advising: the true value of the chartered accountant in 2025
Moins de temps à saisir, plus de temps à conseiller : la vraie valeur de l’expert-comptable en 2025
In this op-ed published in Le Monde Du Chiffre, Kate Robinson, Director of the Grande École Programme at EDC Paris Business School, and Thomas Rodach, chartered accountant and EDC alumnus, stress that the technological changes in the accounting sector make it essential to overhaul training programmes to meet the new demands of the profession.
In particular, they highlight the commitment of EDC Paris Business School, which has created an Accounting - Advisory - Audit (CCA) specialisation within its Grande École Programme. Built on the standards of the DSCG (the French higher diploma in accounting and management) and strengthened by a partnership with the Ordre des Experts-Comptables de Paris Île-de-France, this specialisation aims to train professionals who are technically rigorous, agile in the face of digital transformation and fully committed to an advisory approach.
