This month, the North Dakota CPA Society is partnering with the AICPA on a national Accounting Opportunities Experience initiative. We are excited to share that Governor Burgum signed a proclamation stating November is Accounting Awareness Month. CPA volunteers will be visiting with high school students virtually and in-person to raise awareness of accounting career opportunities.
Many students are making career decisions before they enter college. Now, more than ever, it’s important to share with high school students the opportunities available for a career in accounting. The best way to do that is for them to hear directly from CPAs.
Since the program began in 2022, over 40 state CPA societies have collaborated, along with the AICPA’s National Commission on Diversity & Inclusion and Student Recruitment Committee.
The presentations, outreach and support materials to students and teachers will help explain the exciting and challenging roles that CPAs play in the business world.
Last year the North Dakota CPA Society’s outreach resulted in 13 requests from high schools around the state. We are excited this year to have created a group that is reaching out specifically to High School students. The Accounting Career Influencers are thrilled to already have 26 High Schools on the list to date. If you are interested in volunteering, please reach out to membership@ndcpas.org. #FutureAccountants
