Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority and the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants [say they have launched AIxAccountancy](https://www.imda.gov.sg/resources/press-releases-factsheets-and-speeches/accountancy-and-corporate-finance-professionals-to-be-ai-ready?ref=southeastasiaconnect.com), the first training programme developed with a professional body under the National AI Impact Programme. The stated ambition is to upskill 60,000 accountancy and corporate-finance professionals over three years.

## What the programme includes

The official announcement describes two progressive online phases. The first covers AI foundations and common workplace tasks, including AI-enabled workflows for financial-statement analysis; the second moves into role-specific applications across accounting, finance, audit and tax. Participants who complete both phases are due to receive a certificate, digital badge and continuing-professional-education hours.

IMDA and ISCA also point to AI Nexus, a sandbox where participants can test AI-assisted workflows and share practices. They say more than 20,000 people had expressed interest before launch, while the Accountant-General’s Department plans to include the programme in learning and development for 4,000 public-sector finance and internal-audit officers.

## What to watch

The programme now has a clear three-year training ambition. Its significance will depend on how many professionals complete the courses and apply the skills in their day-to-day work.
