Summary/Abstract: Integrated reporting is a complex process of creating and presenting information about an enterprise's activities that significantly exceeds the traditional financial reporting framework. Difficulties in the preparation of non-financial information and ensuring its high quality imply changes in the teaching model. The aim of this study is to examine the opinion of academic teachers on the content and teaching methods used in the context of their adaptation to integrated reporting requirements. According to the authors, only the combination of hard and soft skills in accounting teaching will allow further development of integrated reporting. The basic research methods used to verify this hypothesis are surveys and literature studies, as well as formulating conclusions on the basis of the deduction and synthesis methods. The conducted research indicates the need for modification of accounting education to adapt it to market requirements.
