ORTECH Academy Leads High-Impact Internal Audit Data Analytics Workshop at Universiti Malaya

On 13 November 2025, ORTECH Academy proudly hosted a powerful, hands-on workshop. Specifically, our expert team taught internal audit data analytics using Alteryx to students at Universiti Malaya. During the event, we guided students from the Bachelor of Accounting (IT Audit) program through practical, real-world tasks. Ultimately, the outcome proved very clear: these 145 students showed that the next generation of accounting experts is highly data-driven, ready for analytics, and deeply focused on the future.

The outcome was clear: 145 students proved that the next generation of auditors is more data-driven, analytics-ready, and future-focused than ever.

A New Generation of Data-Driven Auditors Is Emerging

The accounting field shifts rapidly toward digital, automated, and AI-powered methods. Because of this shift, the job market demands data-literate experts more than ever before. Therefore, this workshop highlighted how ready Malaysian students are to use advanced data tools in their future jobs.

• First, clean, test, and change massive data files easily.
• Next, spot odd patterns and uncover hidden fraud risks quickly.
• Then, build fast, automated workflows using Alteryx software.
• Furthermore, produce clear audit insights with real business value.
• Finally, apply smart, data-first thinking to modern daily tasks.

Ultimately, their bright curiosity, high energy, and fast learning speed proved the strong talent pipeline coming out of Universiti Malaya.
