Description

Employers often report students are entering the profession without all the necessary skills to be successful throughout their career. Within the education tracks our student members embark upon, they receive a variety of information to help set them up for successful careers. What if that isn’t enough? Are firms looking for more from incoming staff? Are there valuable skills students are missing out on? As state society and AICPA staff, how can we fill in those gaps from what’s provided in their education and what is needed for success. Come hear what a North Carolina professor is doing in the classroom to help his students be better prepared for their careers.
