Abstract

The objective of this paper is to provide an introduction to high-quality, practical, and evidence-based instructional resources from medical educators that can be adapted and adopted by accounting educators. The American Accounting Association (AAA) Pathways Commission Final Report set a goal of accounting becoming a learned profession by 2036. An AAA Presidential Scholar has advised that the achievement of this goal will require collaboration with other academic areas inside and beyond the business school. Responding to this call, this paper identifies a subset of Association for Medical Education in Europe (AMEE) Medical Education Guides that are relevant to accounting educators interested in problem-based learning (PBL), team-based learning (TBL), peer assisted learning (PAL) and reflection. Other opportunities for application of the medical resources to faculty responsibilities in teaching, research and service are shared to encourage accounting educators to learn from a well-established learned profession.
