Abstract: In June 2004, the International Association for Accounting Education and Research (IAAER) in cooperation with the Southern African Accounting Association (SAAA) and the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) hosted a Globalization Roundtable in Durban, South Africa, on the theme of Implementing International Education Standards: The Global Challenges. This was supported by the KPMG Foundation. The Roundtable was held to familiarize members of the international academic community with the International Education Standards (IES) developed and released by IFAC to provide quality and consistency in global accounting education. Attendees at the Roundtable were asked to discuss the IES, identify implementation challenges, particularly in emerging countries, and resources to meet those challenges, including any additional implementation guidance or assistance. This report summarizes the deliberations.
