Abstract

Feedback was obtained from students who are studying Auditing by means of distance education in order to evaluate the quality of the study packages presented. The teaching approach and various other aspects of the study packages were investigated. The results of the investigation highlighted particular aspects of the study packages, which were rated as excellent, average or requiring further attention. The replies regarding the successful and less successful aspects of the Auditing distance education packages are seen as part of the quality assurance process and indicate which qualities and aspects of the study packages should be retained and which aspects should be improved or replaced in order to promote mastery of the study material. The results of the investigation could be fruitfully applied to other disciplines.
