EY Academic Resource Center – the EYARC Experience platform-EY Academic Resource Center

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript provides an overview of the EY Academic Resource Center (ARC) and its new Experience Platform, aimed at accounting educators and students. Karen Osterheld, Joni Fisher from EY, and David Wood from BYU discuss the platform's features. The Experience Platform, launched three weeks prior, has received positive feedback. It is designed to offer free educational resources and materials that educators and students can use in a plug-and-play format, unlike traditional platforms that allow for modifications. The session detailed the platform's setup for instructors and students, who can log in, create accounts, and access courses and assignments. Students are given access using a unique course code. The platform includes a diverse range of assignments, such as mini-cases on audit inquiry, process mining, and generative AI, among others. The assignments are structured to engage students with real-world skills like inquiry, interviewing, and using technology in accounting tasks. The conversation addressed user experience and troubleshooting issues, with an open invitation for educators to share feedback and suggest future content. The platform, supported by a significant grant from EY, aims to enhance accounting education by bringing innovative and practical learning tools to the classroom.
