“SUSTAINING OUR PROFESSION”
The theme of the 2023 Annual Meeting is “Sustaining Our Profession,” exploring opportunities for accounting and the academy to shape the future.
The accounting profession, broadly defined, is being challenged to adopt new technologies, practices, and frameworks to strengthen its role as a foundation to our prosperous society. Sessions at this year’s Annual Meeting will explore the challenges and opportunities facing the accounting profession, with an eye toward implications for the academy and positive actions we can take to advance the profession. We have the responsibility to inform society to support constructive change and to redesign our programs and institutions to reflect the changing environment. Now is the time to use our individual and combined strengths to build the profession with integrity, inclusion and equity.
Please join us in Denver, Colorado for the Annual Meeting and Conference on Teaching and Learning in Accounting (CTLA), and help us to become an even stronger and more impactful association!
