Join us on Wednesday, February 16th starting at 6pm for a discussion of professional designations earned by accountants.
This event is open to students or professionals who are interested in learning what the credentials can do for their career.
The Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is a US credential for licensed accounting professionals committed to protecting the public interest. Accountants with the CPA designation offer financial statement audits and other attestation services to help inform investors about the financial health of organizations.
The Certified Management Accountant (CMA) is a globally recognized professional credential focusing on management accounting and corporate performance. CMAs not only know how to prepare corporate financial reports but also how to explain the story behind the numbers. According to the IMA's 2019 US Salary Survey, CMAs earn 55% more in the U.S. than professionals without a designation.
Joining us for the evening will be Mallory Vincent, CPA and Dr. Cathy Duffy.
