Event information

In this brief webinar Dr Hilary Lindsay introduces you to the Researching Accountant Development Framework, an interactive resource for accountants who have moved into academia. The resource Hilary has put together includes tips and hints from many others who have made the move. Hilary will explain how to use the resource to help you make a successful transition into research.

The Researching Accountant Development Framework is based on three dimensions of learning – the cognitive, intrapersonal and interpersonal - and builds on research carried out by Hilary Lindsay during and after her own professional doctoral studies.

The content is the result of interviews with thirteen members from several professional accountancy bodies, based inside and outside the UK, who are all now working in academia and who have varying levels of experience.

Researching Accountant Development Framework

The webinar will introduce the three overarching themes of the framework and how to apply them,

1. Developing your knowledge and skills (the cognitive aspects)
2. Changing yourself (the intrapersonal aspects)
3. Changing your world (the interpersonal aspects)
