Yuma, Arizona -  The road to achieving the Certified Public Accountant designation can be challenging if you’re not prepared.

That’s why the Arizona Western College Accounting program, the AWC Business Group club, and the Arizona Society of CPAs (ASCPA) Yuma chapter are teaming up to present, “The Road to the CPA,” on Today.

Students will have an opportunity to learn about what it takes to become a CPA in Arizona, get exam tips, discover what resources are available, meet CPAs from multiple industries, and get their questions answered so they can be better equipped to meet their academic and professional goals.

The event will run from 2 to 4 p.m. and be held in room AC 282 in the Academic Complex on the AWC Yuma Campus, 2020 S. Ave. 8E.

Students and interested members of the community are invited to attend this free informative presentation.

Founded in 1933, the ASCPA is the largest professional organization operating specifically for CPAs in Arizona with more than 5,700 members. Members work in a variety of industries including corporate finance, public practice, government, nonprofit, and education.
