annual management conference
Take The Wheel The Management Conference gives CPAs and other financial professionals who work in Business and Industry a chance to step away from their daily activities and see what's on the horizon. Our sessions focus on many key areas affecting you today such as management and financial issues, technology, human resources and personal development. The conference is developed by and for our CPAs in business and industry but you will find that the sessions are of interest to the business community in general. Anyone interested is welcome to attend.
Your Society Gets A New Look
As you can probably tell, the Society is undergoing some changes to our “look”. During our 2010 strategic planning session, one of the major initiatives identified was to “Improve Communications and Marketing Efforts." Part of that initiative included engaging a marketing firm to review our communications and suggest changes to help us “cut through the clutter”. The firm’s research included a focus group session, an online survey and a review of various items we publish and use. The marketing firm suggestions include a new logo and a redesign of our communications including the newsletter, website, CPE;brochures, letterhead etc. We launched the new look with our January newsletter. Hopefully you didn’t miss it! It’s quite different but we are excited about the new colorful design. Our website is now in the process of being updated as well as other communication pieces. Another suggestion by the marketing firm was to streamline our organization’s name. Although several different variations were being used, our main title was “North Dakota Society of CPAs”. Our new, just slightly different usage will be, “North Dakota CPA Society”. You will also see “Colleagues You Can Count On” listed on many of our publications. This tag line not only refers to our members being able to count on fellow Society members but it can also be used to promote CPA professionals to the general public.
Where is that CPA licensed? CPAVerify shows where. At 3/7/12, 24 boards of accountancy participate in the program.
