Accounting Academic’s teaching practice in relation to sustainable development: investigating the role of teacher’s self-efficacy

• The purpose of the study is to investigate the extent to which education on issues of sustainable development are incorporated into the teaching practice of accounting academics. Specifically, this study aims to examine the teaching practice (EXTENT) and its relationship to the following influencing factors: accounting academic’s attitudes towards sustainable development education (ATTDE), support of superiors (SUPS); peer support (PEERS), and accounting academics’ self-efficacy in relation to teaching sustainable development (SDTSE). This study contributes by extending prior knowledge of changes in education curricula by investigating drivers that influence sustainable development teaching practice. The study is of particular relevance for leaders of universities and business schools as well as governments and professional bodies that gradually aim to improve the role of sustainable development in education.
