As part of the Department of Accounting and Audit Week, a meeting with an employer was held on the topic 'The Accountant of the Future: A Professional Who Understands Numbers More Deeply Than Artificial Intelligence.'
The speaker at the event was Galiya Nuri — Managing Partner of NRG Audit, Independent Auditor of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Professional Accountant of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Tax Consultant, Tax Auditor, CIPA, CPA Eurasia, DipPFM (United Kingdom), Internal Auditor, Member of the PAO «Collegium of Auditors», Industry Leader 2022 in the nomination «For Contribution to the Country's Economy», Best Accounting Services Company 2023 and 2024 «Choice of the Country», and Laureate of the People Awards 2024 «Accounting Company of the Year».
During the lecture, Galiya Nuri noted that the development of artificial intelligence and digital technologies is actively transforming the field of accounting. However, she emphasized that it is precisely the human professional who remains the key link in financial analysis and decision-making. Only a specialist is capable of understanding the meaning behind figures at a deeper level than artificial intelligence — perceiving within them the real economic processes, risks, and opportunities for business.
The speaker emphasised that it is important for the modern accountant not only to master automation and data analysis technologies but also to develop critical thinking, strategic vision, and the ability to make responsible decisions. These qualities, according to Galiya Nuri, will enable specialists to remain in demand even in the era of digitalisation and artificial intelligence.
The meeting was organized by Senior Lecturer of the Department Aitkhozhina Aliya Yeleuissizovna.
