So many positions in accounting will be transferred to an ever-improving Generative Artificial Intelligence format that bridging payroll to accounting is fast becoming a foregone conclusion. Some speculate that 94% of all accounting positions will be transferred to an AI environment within the next 6 years. This course is very timely in bridging the gap over the next few years. Thank you!
