In cooperation with DATEV eG, the Chair of Business Administration and Taxation at the University of Würzburg offers students the opportunity to gain initial practical experience in an accounting system by means of a realistic case study with the four-day course "Introduction to EDV-supported Tax Consulting with DATEV".
This course is generally open to Bachelor students of all semesters. The first part of the course covers an introduction to accounting, the preparation of annual financial statements, and the preparation and interpretation of controlling reports. The contents taught in the course "External Corporate Accounting" are a prerequisite. Since in a second part income tax returns are additionally prepared and basic knowledge of tax law is assumed, prior attendance of the courses "Tax Law and Tax Effect" and/or "Income Taxation" is recommended.
In connection with the course, the "DATEV Driver's License" is offered again this semester - on a voluntary basis. This is a training course consisting of several modules (classroom sessions and (online) self-study) to impart theoretical industry and practical software knowledge. The driver's license concludes with a nationally standardized online examination provided by DATEV. This driver's license is already recognized and appreciated in numerous tax consulting firms. For more information on the DATEV driver's license, please see the attached guide. Additional information can also be found at https://www.datev.de/web/de/top-themen/steuerberater/weitere-themen/datev-fuehrerschein/.
The course will take place after the exam period from August 19-22, 2019 from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in CIP Pool II (Old Chamber of Commerce Building). The classroom sessions scheduled for the DATEV driver's license are integrated within the course. On Monday, August 26, 2019, the final (online) exam will take place in CIP Pool II (Altes IHK-Gebäude). By passing this exam, you will earn 3 ungraded ECTS points. If you also meet the requirements of the DATEV driver's license in this exam, you will receive the confirmation of passing the DATEV driver's license, which is recognized in practice.
The number of participants in the course is limited. If you are interested in participating, you can apply by email no later than June 30, 2019. To do so, please send a current grade report and a certificate of registered exams to michael.braehler@uni-wuerzburg.de. Assignment to the course will be made no later than July 15, 2019.
