Introducing Veronique Weets

Dr. Véronique Weets is a Professor of International Accounting and a faculty member at two Belgian universities. Veronique participates regularly in Master Programs at various Business schools. Véronique Weets was also associated with the IFRS Technical desk of Deloitte in Belgium, where she was involved in client work on matters such as the transition to IFRS and the subsequent application of IFRS to listed companies. She was also responsible for client training as well as training of the professional staff. Veronique helps clients with the application of IFRS on a daily basis through training or consultancy. This means that she actively searches for the practical translation of this principle based framework of accounting in order to provide realistic solutions to clients. Therefore, facilitation sessions provided by Véronique have always a strong theoretical basis that is translated to practical applications which are relevant to the business environment of attendees.
