Incorporating soft skills into accounting and MIS curricula

Abstract

Faculty face many challenges both in and outside the confines of the university setting. They must increase the number of topics and the depth in which the material is covered while simultaneously reducing the number of required degree hours. In addition, employers have acknowledged an overall decline of soft skills among today's graduates. Further, faculty must address their material coverage for the multi-tasking skills of today's college students. In this article, the authors address the concerns voiced by the employers of college graduates regarding the apparent absence of soft skills competence and suggest an assurance of learning model for incorporating these skills into curricula.
