The aim of this research was to investigate the contributing factors that influenced the intentions of accounting students in Indonesia to pursue a career as a professional accountant. The researchers applied a quantitative method to present a descriptive analysis of accounting students perception. The researchers collected 439 questionnaires from accounting students across universities in Indonesia with simple random sampling technique. The findings show that the intrinsic factor (attitude) and parental or peers influence (subjective norm) affect the students’ intention to pursue a career as a professional accountant. The results of this research are expected to give insights to university’s accounting department and professional bodies such as Institute of Indonesia Chartered Accountant and Institute of Certified Public Accountant to formulate strategies to achieve the desired number of accountants in Indonesia. In addition, regulatory agencies can use these findings as a basis to develop policies that guide universities or professional bodies to make the accounting profession more desirable.
Desa Pliken adalah salah satu desa di Kabupaten Banyumas yang sudah memiliki Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUMDes). Namun, setelah hampir satu tahun berdiri, dampak keberadaannya sulit diukur. Saat ini, salah satu kegiatan BUMDes adalah pengelolaan sampah, meskipun masih menjadi kegiatan utama, pemerintah desa saat ini sedang mempertimbangkan kegiatan lain untuk ekspansi aktivitas bisnis BUMDes. Untuk memastikan keberlanjutan kegiatan perusahaan milik desa, gagasan perluasan bisnis harus didasarkan pada perencanaan dan strategi yang menyeluruh. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat dilakukan untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut dengan melakukan pemetaan terhadap potensi desa. Kegiatan ini merupakan bagian dari perencanaan dan strategi komprehensif untuk menciptakan BUMDes yang berkelanjutan. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan partisipasi masyarakat desa yang mewakili keragaman desa. Kami menggunakan pendekatan pembangunan berbasis masyarakat yang berbasis aset untuk memastikan bahwa setiap potensi anggota diakui dan dapat digunakan untuk meningkatkan pembangunan desa. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa bakat/potensi individu, organisasi warga dan lembaga lokal adalah faktor utama dalam penyusunan peta potensi desa. Lebih lanjut, hasilnya menunjukkan peningkatan kapasitas dan manajemen serta pengembangan jaringan desa sangat penting untuk penguatan BUMDes.
