| Sumario: | Purpose: The objective of this study is to analyze the skills of analysts in the accounting expert area that are filled out by the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office (MPF), in order to present by level of importance those that have the greatest need for improvement. Methodology: The research was carried out through the descriptive typology, with a quantitative approach. The technique employed was a survey, based on a structured questionnaire with 37 questions, applied in a seven-point Likert scale. The instrument presented questions about the importance, the domain of competencies and their impact on professional performance. Results: The results indicate that only four competences have a satisfactory domain on the part of the respondents, and that five competences need further improvement: continuous training, fraud investigation techniques, writing, legal knowledge and thinking as a wrongdoer. Behavioral skills were considered more important than techniques. Nevertheless, some important competences in the international context had low averages in the Brazilian context. Contributions of the Study: The study allows to know the skills of the MPF expert analysts under aspects of importance, mastery and impact on professional performance. The results can be used for the development of training actions in the institution of the sample as well as for other institutions that have a similar framework. The study can also be replicated as a diagnostic for other institutions and cadres of forensic and accounting experts, serving as a benchmark. |
