2018F02 - Learning in audit firms: the role of experience, feedback, and audit specialists (PhD program: Tilburg University)

What?

The  goal of the PhD project is to improve our understanding of learning in audit firms by explicitly incorporating that learning in audit firms happens in several ways. That is, we will focus on how learning of auditors is influenced by individual auditor characteristics, the interaction within the audit team, and the interaction with audit specialists.

Why?

In each of our studies, we aim to investigate interventions that an audit firm can implement to facilitate the learning process. We will mainly focus on learning with respect to making complex accounting estimates as this is an area where learning (or the failure thereof) can have a material impact on audit quality.
