Chapter Events

Chapter events provide an excellent opportunity to establish personal contact with your fellow members and candidates.

Every CPA and candidate belongs to a chapter and is encouraged to become an active participant.

Each chapter has an elected board of directors comprised of CPAs and candidates. Chapters organize their own events which often include informative meetings and social gatherings.
