Designing financial education at the post-secondary level is a key component of financial culture. We are investigating in this paper what future bankers, accountants, or auditors should learn to boost the prestige of their professions, to have great value for money with their degrees, and maintain their favourable positions on the job market. All institutions must prepare for fierce competition in this country as demographic indicators are worsening and competition from abroad is intensifying. The global picture is true for our field too; institutions of tertiary financial education must find their places and select their strategy. Recalling historical examples, we present views and perspectives we believe should be considered when making decisions affecting the future.
