From application to Linz: how to join the ISP 2026

Joining the ASSET ISP 2026 is a structured but straightforward process reserved for students enrolled at ASSET partner universities.
First, students should check the official call for applications published by their home university or international office. Each partner institution manages its own selection procedure.

Eligibility is typically based on enrollment in relevant study programs in accounting, business, or related fields. Academic performance and motivation may also be considered during selection.
Once selected, students receive guidance from their university coordinator regarding the next steps, including registration, preparatory information, and logistical details for the mobility.

The ISP 2026 will take place at Johannes Kepler University Linz (Austria) from 14 to 18 September 2026, bringing together students from across Europe for a shared academic experience.

Accounting meets sustainability: why ESG matters today

The accounting profession is undergoing a major transformation driven by sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting requirements.

Companies are no longer evaluated only on financial performance but also on their environmental impact, social responsibility, and governance practices. This shift requires new skills and new ways of thinking in accounting and auditing.
The ASSET ISP addresses this evolution by integrating ESG topics into its academic content. Students learn how businesses can embrace sustainability, and how sustainability data is measured, verified, and communicated within organisations.

This includes understanding regulatory frameworks, reporting standards, and assurance practices related to non-financial information.
By connecting traditional accounting principles with sustainability challenges, the program prepares students for the future of the profession, where financial and non-financial reporting are increasingly interconnected.

Skills you don’t expect to learn in an accounting program

While the ASSET ISP focuses on accounting and sustainability, students consistently develop a wide range of unexpected but highly valuable skills.
One of the most important is public speaking. Through presentations and group discussions, students learn to express complex ideas clearly and confidently in English.

Another key skill is time management. The intensive format requires students to organize their work efficiently, prioritize tasks, and meet tight deadlines.
Problem-solving under pressure is also central to the experience. Case studies often simulate real-world scenarios where quick thinking and teamwork are essential.

Leadership skills naturally emerge as students rotate roles within their groups, learning how to guide discussions, support peers, and coordinate group output.
Finally, students develop resilience and adaptability, learning how to perform effectively in unfamiliar and fast-paced academic environments.

How international teamwork works in the ASSET ISP

International teamwork is one of the defining features of the ASSET ISP. Students from different European universities are placed in mixed groups, creating a diverse learning environment from the very beginning.
Each team brings together different academic backgrounds, national perspectives, and ways of thinking. This diversity is intentional and represents one of the main learning objectives of the program.

At the start, students often face challenges such as different communication styles, varying levels of English proficiency, and unfamiliar academic approaches. However, these challenges quickly become opportunities for growth.
Teams learn to coordinate tasks, divide responsibilities, and make decisions collectively under time constraints. This process strengthens not only technical understanding of accounting topics but also soft skills such as communication, negotiation, and adaptability.
By the end of the program, students typically report a strong sense of achievement and improved confidence in working in international environments.

Why short intensive programs matter in your academic journey

Short intensive programs like the ASSET ISP play an increasingly important role in modern higher education.
Unlike traditional semester-long courses, intensive programs concentrate learning into a short but highly focused period. This format encourages active participation and deep engagement with the subject matter.

Students are required to absorb information quickly, apply it immediately, and collaborate effectively under time constraints.
This learning model mirrors real-world professional environments, where deadlines are tight and teamwork is essential.
As a result, participants often report faster skill development, higher motivation, and stronger retention of knowledge compared to conventional classroom settings.

Meet your future classmates: diversity in ASSET ISP

One of the most enriching aspects of the ASSET ISP is the diversity of its participants.
Students come from multiple European universities, each bringing different academic traditions, cultural backgrounds, and perspectives on accounting and auditing.
This diversity creates a unique learning environment where students are exposed to a wide range of ideas and approaches.
Working alongside peers from different countries encourages openness, curiosity, and mutual understanding. It also helps students develop intercultural communication skills that are essential in today’s global job market.
By the end of the program, many participants describe their peers not only as classmates but as part of an international network of future professionals.

What happens during a typical day at the ASSET ISP?

The ASSET Intensive Study Program (ISP) is designed as a highly interactive and structured international learning experience. A typical day combines academic input, teamwork, and applied learning activities.
The day usually begins with a lecture or seminar led by academic staff and experts in accounting, auditing, and sustainability. These sessions introduce key concepts and provide the theoretical foundation for the day’s activities.

In the middle part of the day, students work in international teams on case studies and practical exercises. These group activities are at the heart of the ISP experience, encouraging collaboration, discussion, and problem-solving across different academic and cultural backgrounds.
Afternoons are often dedicated to group presentations, feedback sessions, and interactive discussions with lecturers. Students are encouraged to reflect critically on their work and connect theory with practice.

Beyond the classroom, informal networking and peer interaction play an important role, helping participants build international connections in a relaxed and collaborative environment.

We are pleased to share highlights from the ASSET Transnational Project Meeting held in Vilnius from 11–13 December 🇱🇹. Hosted by ISM University of Management and Economics and organized by Valdone Darskuviene, the meeting was chaired by Francesca Cesaroni from the University of Urbino.

Together, our partners advanced the next steps in project implementation and finalized key preparations for the Intensive Study Programme (ISP) to be held in Linz 🇦🇹. Dates are set: 13–19 September 2026 📅. The collaboration across teams was inspiring and productive—moving us closer to our shared objectives 🚀.

Many thanks to our hosts in Vilnius and to all partners for their commitment. We look forward to continuing this momentum at our next project meeting in April in Vigo 🇪🇸📍.

🔍 Following TM1, we embarked on Teaching Module 2 (TM2): Assurance of Sustainability Reports. Students worked with a case study, “4-Airlines,” to simulate audit and assurance tasks — learning how sustainability disclosures are validated in practice.

📚After class, we had the privilege of presenting the book Modern History of Accounting in Europe, co-authored by scholars from the countries participating in the ASSET project and members of the AFECA association. Recently published, the volume is dedicated to Lucien Jaffré, founder of AFECA. The presentation took place in the presence of Mrs. Madeleine Jaffré, as a tribute to his legacy.

➡️ The week ahead includes Modules 3 and 4:
- TM3: Sustainability Management Accounting
- TM4: Sustainability, Taxation & Strategic Decision Making

It’s inspiring to see how each module builds on the last, weaving together technical know-how, critical thinking, and cross‑cultural dialogue.
