Accounting as a career choice
Presentation by CPA, Australia
On May 28, our Accounting class participated in a workshop presented by Certified Practising Accountants (CPA’s). We were fortunate to have Claire Smith, Director Strategic Services, Cradle Coast Authority and Stephen Allen, Academic Coordinator (Cradle Coast) and Senior Teaching Fellow, Tasmanian School of Business and Economics, UTAS visit providing background on their journey, skills required, attributes and real life examples of CPA. They also advised about the Local Government School-based Apprenticeship program and opportunities for Year 10 and 11 students next year in Council. Students also completed a practical activity around financial statements and ratio analysis. Thanks to Claire and Steve for their time.
