Abstract
Abstract Professional accounting associations, business schools, and accounting professors are increasingly faced with an important question: Which information technology (IT) competencies should be developed in accounting programs to train skilled professional accountants? Key references in accounting education show that advanced‐level training in IT is very important for accountants’ careers. Through content analysis, I investigate how Canadian CPAs are trained in IT. Results indicate that, postmerger, IT has lost ground in the CPA program. This could be mainly due to: (a) a larger coverage in finance, strategy, and governance topics; (b) challenges to promote and teach IT in terms of course development; and (c) a lack of recognition of and incentives for academic work on IT. Compared to some key players in accounting education, it appears that Canada has taken a different route with regard to the required IT competencies. Copyright © 2016 ASAC.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
