Dear Hannah,
Growing and diversifying
the CPA pipeline is a priority across the profession, and
awareness is key. MassCPAs works directly with educators and
students as young as middle school to get them excited about accounting
as a career and to make them aware of all the opportunities in
our industry, and I’m excited to share an update on our recent
efforts.
- Last week, the Society released
a new video series, “CareerPathwAys:
Your path. Your journey. Your CPA career,”
to raise awareness of the unique role CPAs play
in helping businesses and communities and highlighting
different paths in the profession. Watch the videos here
and learn more about our process in this
article. We are sharing these videos
with students and educators, and I’m happy to report that
several other state CPA societies are also using them to
help us spread the message nationwide!
- The Society partnered with the
AICPA and 34 other state CPA societies for Accounting
Opportunities Week on November 7-11. Throughout the week,
members visited high school classrooms to raise awareness
of the accounting profession, explain the exciting and
challenging roles that CPAs play in the business
world and encourage students to visit masscpas.org/careerpathways
to start their journey. Thank you to our member volunteers
– you helped us reach 200+ students this
week!
- We also recently launched a
new mentorship program designed to
encourage, inspire and empower future CPAs and provide an
opportunity for our members to give back to the
profession. The program consists of 15 mentors from
various firms and professional levels and 15 mentees who
are college students or recent grads. All mentors
and mentees underwent training sessions focused on
building strong relationships, the benefits of mentorship,
addressing differences, goal setting and more. Read
this article for more information. We
look forward to scaling this program in the future, and I
will keep you informed on opportunities to get
involved.
There are so many bright,
motivated students trying to decide on
a career path, and it’s our responsibility to support them on
their journey in the profession. Much work is to be done, and
I’m proud of our efforts and thank all our member volunteers
for their support!
Lastly, thank you to those of you who have served our country.
We are grateful for your sacrifice, and we honor you on this
Veterans Day.
Amy Pitter
MassCPAs President and CEO
