Abstract

The crisis within public sector accounting (PSA) has been the topic of much discussion with an emerging consensus that action needs to be taken to manage the demand and supply for statutory audit (ICAEW, Citation2022) and the sustainability of the PSA profession (Baylis & De Widt, Citation2023). In this article, we continue and extend this debate on how PSA can be stimulated and rejuvenated in the higher education context using an alternative educational framework to maintain a functioning and value-adding public sector accountability regime.
