Abstract: Past 25 years has seen the rapid development of Chinese higher education in which accounting and business education plays an important role in providing managerial talents to support and ensure the economic reform, state sector restructuring, and the prosperous economy. Facing globalization and employment pressure, Chinese business schools are taking actions to reform the old-fashioned instructional pattern to enhance graduates' employability and adapt themselves to environmental change such as China's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) and international accounting norms. This paper provides an introduction to the current reform of Chinese accounting and business education, analyzes the labor market for graduates and graduates' employability, and sets forth a framework of accounting and business educational reform, with a case study of accounting education at the author's university.
