This project will explore the potential of Computer Based Exams (CBE) within an undergraduate accounting programme, by incorporating a CBE within a financial accounting module as part of the continuous assessment for that module. 

Both graduate and industry feedback to the accounting programme team within TUS Athlone has consistently highlighted the importance of graduates having strong spreadsheet and computer skills. 

This project will introduce students to CBEs, which will support completion and success in professional accounting exams in the long-term, while also providing them with digital workplace skills, in addition to aligning assessment with industry standards and professional accountancy bodies.
