Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study to what extent changes made to the ICT educational program of the Tunisian accounting education, following the LMD reform, meet the needs of the accounting profession. An application of the market orientation logic as part of this program is proposed. An exploratory study conducted with a group of accountants teachers shows that the new program does not meet the needs of their profession. It would be interesting to complete this study by checking the suitability of this program for chartered accountants and companies.
