Frequently Asked Questions

Course Curriculum

What should I expect from the MasterCamp in Applied Auditing & Analytics?

The 9-month MasterCamp in Applied Auditing & Analytics, co-designed and delivered by Grant Thornton with Masters’ Union, is a fully hands-on and placement targeted programme. During the duration of the programme, you should expect rigorous industry immersive training inclusive of outcome-driven learning experiences. The programme also comes with an opportunity of a 3-month-long virtual internship for freshers and a live project for experienced professionals.

What should I NOT expect from the MasterCamp in Applied Auditing & Analytics?

The MasterCamp in Applied Auditing & Analytics does not follow a conventional pedagogical approach that is fully focused on theoretical knowledge. The programme curriculum is meticulously structured to enable hands-on learning through real-life projects, internships & apprenticeships. However, you should not expect guaranteed job placements upon completion of 9 months.

What type of learning experience should I expect from the programme?

This programme is focused on 100% skill-based learning using the latest practices, real-world assignments and Audit case studies. It is set up in an online-offline format so that you can collaborate with your peer group in person and on campus. You also get to leverage the brilliant opportunity of being taught live by the Grant Thornton team as well as the co-op design of the curriculum integrating hands-on academics with real-life projects, internships & apprenticeships.

Is it mandatory to participate in projects?

Participation in hands-on projects under the mentorship of Grant Thornton’s Audit experts helps you to become industry-ready. It is mandatory because these projects contribute to a significant part of your total credits during the programme.

What does “Hybrid” teaching mode mean?

All the sessions in the MasterCamp in Applied Auditing & Analytics are conducted live & online over Zoom.

To help the folks enrolled in the programme make the most out of their learning journeys - Masters’ Union will arrange for the students to attend the live sessions out of a coworking space across locations in India provided there is a significant number of enrolled students in that location.

We have found this arrangement to be effective for peer learning and forming genuine friendships as you work towards kickstarting your career in Audit.

However, a fundamental understanding of auditing would be preferable.

Next, the shortlisted candidates will be required to go through an online interview. Finally, the selected candidates will be provided with an offer of admission to the programme.
