Accounting Opportunities Week returns to Minnesota classrooms
November 4, 2024 | Corey Butler
Now in its third year, the MNCPA’s
Accounting Opportunities Week returns to Minnesota classrooms Nov. 11-15.
In conjunction with other certified public accountant associations throughout the United States, MNCPA members will visit with high school students to share the opportunities available within a career in accounting.
Love Taylor Swift? Enjoy the Minnesota Twins? Do you think The Guthrie is an arts gem? Those are all examples where CPAs are critical to their success. While individual taxpayers are certainly in need of quality CPAs, so, too, are businesses, the government and educational organizations.
In the past two years, high school teachers and counselors have requested dozens of Minnesota CPAs to visit classrooms during Accounting Opportunities Week where thousands of students learned about the potential of pursuing an accounting career.
Are you a teacher or counselor interested in having a CPA visit your school? There’s still time to
request a CPA to visit your classroom for Accounting Opportunities Week. The MNCPA also runs
Talk to the Students, a yearlong effort to have CPAs visit classrooms.
