"CPA Ontario was pleased to have the opportunity to partner with the Canadian Association of Business Students as a sponsor of this fun and informative event," said Vicki Liederman, director of student recruitment at CPA Ontario, in a statement. "It's a great opportunity for students to learn about the many opportunities available to them in the world of business while also networking and having a great time. We also think it's a great opportunity for us to provide information on how the CPA designation provides budding business people with instant credibility, whether it's on Bay Street or Main Street."
