Universities need to develop their curriculum to be equal to<br>International Education Standard (IES) which already been establisehd by IFAC, in The<br>International Accounting Education Standards Board (IAESB) which is an independent<br>standard-setting body that serves the public interest by establishing standards in the area of<br>professional accounting education that prescribe technical competence and professional skills,<br>values, ethics, and attitudes. In Indonesia, there is still no national standard on curriculum of<br>accounting education in universities and it will consider as problem in educating the future<br>accountants. Yet in the IAI and IAPI themselves there is still gap between the curriculum of<br>bith association with international standard.
