Exploring The Intersection Between Technology And Public Sector Accounting Education - A Systematic Literature Review

This systematic literature review explores the intersection of technology and public sector accounting education (PSAE). Despite the growing importance of PSAE for preparing competent public servants and implementing public sector reforms, research in this area remains limited compared to private sector accounting education. This study aims to address this gap by examining the evolution of technology trends in PSAE and identifying future research directions. The findings reveal a significant focus on the urgency to acquire technological skills, integrating technology into teaching, and developing conceptual frameworks. This highlights the need for continual adaptation of PSAE curricula to incorporate modern tools and respond to global challenges. Future research should explore the integration of advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence and blockchain, into PSAE to enhance public sector reforms and educational practices. Comparative studies across different countries are also necessary to understand cultural and systemic factors influencing PSAE. Addressing these gaps will ensure that PSAE remains relevant and effective in preparing graduates for the evolving demands of the public sector.
