Case Study: Implementing Business Intelligence Practices and Applications<br />

Students in undergraduate Accounting at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Technology, Sydney use COGNOS to implement and<br />

understand business intelligence practices and applications. The aim is to improve students' work readiness by<br />

making them familiar with the use <strong>of</strong> new system approaches and technologies deployed in many<br />

organisations.<br />

Staff who are trained in the necessary technical skills to merge accounting theory with business intelligence<br />

applications develop a database to demonstrate theoretical concepts from the subject. Mini cases and<br />

exercises are developed.<br />

Students work collaboratively to develop knowledge about and understand real-world issues in accounting<br />

information management. The overall aim is to improve the work readiness <strong>of</strong> accounting graduates by means<br />

<strong>of</strong> incorporating business intelligence applications in the undergraduate accounting curriculum.
