Young CPA Cabinet
Young CPAs in North Carolina are those willing to lead the profession in
this state in a variety of ways. A special cabinet has been created to address
the needs of CPAs aged 35 and under. Specifically, we intend to bring together
young CPAs through a variety of social and service events. Additionally, we have
developed an annual conference devoted entirely to young CPAs. Ultimately, we
want to recruit young CPAs who will become the leadership of the profession in
future years.
