Professionalism

Professional development for Certified General Accountants and the business community

Professionalism

We can all relate to the Miriam-Webster dictionary definition of a profession as: a calling requiring specialized knowledge and often long and intensive academic preparation. But for a CGA, the term takes on an elevated meaning to achieve a synthesis of the technical aspects with the softer skills all bound up with a dedication to providing an exceptionally high level of service to the public.
