On May 26, join insightful speakers and fellow CPAs for a half‑day, virtual ethics conference offering practical guidance for navigating real‑world ethical dilemmas. In a climate of rising ethical complexity, this event aims to reinforce the profession’s enduring commitment to ethics, integrity, and sound judgment—principles that empower CPAs to uphold public trust and lead with confidence.
We begin with insights from Toronto’s Airport Gold Heist, a cautionary example revealing how fraud, lack of controls, and ethical blind spots can compromise even the most well-designed systems. From there, we expand into a broader discussion with seasoned leaders who will examine how ethical dilemmas are shifting in uncertain times—and how CPAs can reframe them with clarity and confidence.
A practical session on resolving dilemmas through constructive conversation further equips participants with tools for real world practice. We conclude with a forward-looking dialogue on ethical leadership in the age of AI, highlighting how CPAs can continue to lead with integrity as technology transforms the profession.
