Accounting students

Once the firm's lead recruiter at Howard University, Derek Thomas will take on responsibility for bringing on new talent across the board.

A group of 25 high school students traveled from across Massachusetts to attend the Accounting Careers Exploratory Leadership event organized by the Massachusetts Society of CPAs.

Tayiika Dennis is the new chair of the society's board of directors, while Adam Blitz is chairing the CalCPA Education Foundation.

Deloitte, EY, KPMG and PwC ranked only behind Amazon.

The state society committed a $25,000 grant to Bristol Community College in Fall River.

The firm hosted 18 students who learned about accounting, tax and audit careers.

The board has given $19 million in awards since 2011.

The state CPA society's Student Education Fund is awarding funds to 35 accounting students for the 2022-2023 academic year.

Scholarships ranging from $500 to $4,000 went to 43 accounting students across the state.

In recognition of the first Black CPA in 1921, the group named the recipients of the nearly $100,000 it committed to giving to 100 Black accounting students to help them become CPAs.
