Accounting Information Systems is a place where you can learn about accounting and information systems. By combining the principles from information systems, Accounting Information Systems (AIS) as an academic topic of study offers the basic theory and methods that are applied to accounting and auditing. Since these organizations increasingly rely on computerised information systems to achieve a competitive edge, modern electronic firms (e-businesses) recognize the relevance of AIS as a driver of digital transformation. As a result, information systems are seen as a major driver for generating value and controlling risk. As a result, you are urged to complete the activities and materials offered in this study guide in order to build the key abilities required of a NQF level 8 graduate. I encourage you to actively participate and interact with your classmates and lecturers.
