This course mostly consists of reviewing and solidifying previously taught material and learning to integrate and apply it to real-life cases, so recommendations are technically accurate, comprehensive, reflective of a company's strategic context and, ultimately, useful to management. Through hand-in case assignments and daily examination of unstructured cases, the course assists in the development of critical thinking (judgement, analysis, diagnostic and evaluation) along with the ability to communicate persuasively, using both oral and written formats. These skills are the hallmark of any professional. The small class size permits students to gain confidence in presenting ideas and to receive considerable guidance and feedback on written case reports. The focus on case analysis and writing skills will be highly valuable in students' professional accounting education program.
