IFRS and XBRL

A start of a great career.  Did you see the article, "The Future is Now: XBRL Emerges as Career Niche" in the Journal of Accountancy?

XBRL

Sunday, I teach FL551 -Analysis and Reporting at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College. This is a new course in the Financial track of the Masters of Leadership Development, affectionately known as the MLD program. To get prepped for the course, I completed the International XBRL certification course and I'm prepping for the exam.  The tagging concept was never difficult to understand  because I understand HTML and XML; however, I had so many misconceptions about XBRL before I took the training.  I would recommend this training to anyone.  I also want to take the AICPA US GAAP Taxonomy training when it becomes available.
