Held on four Pennsylvania college campuses, the events attracted nearly 1,000 attendees this year. When surveyed, 66% of participants left considering an accounting major, and nearly half are now thinking about a future career as a CPA.
Attendees Are Saying
The "state of the union" information regarding the PICPA and the industry as a whole was very interesting. The emphasis on the soft skills important for success was very telling, and the exercises were very enjoyable.
This event has given me a different perspective on the field of accounting, and its room for growth as a career.
