CalCPA Members Begin Quest for the Next Generation of CPAs - Outreach Program - California Society of Certified Public Accountants - Brief Article

California CPA, Dec, 2001

CalCPA's student outreach program hit the newsstands in November with Quest magazine, a publication designed to give high school and college students an exciting look into a CPA career.

CalCPA members are encouraged to visit local thigh schools to talk about CPA careers or during career day events.

If you would like to participate in the campaign, please contact Bill Spaniel, CalCPA public relations manager, at bill.spaniel@calcpa.org. Please provide your name, your firm or business name and address, your phone number, and the names of the schools you would like to contact.

Participants will receive a packet that includes: a copy of Quest, guidelines that discuss how to approach high schools and hints for presenting to high school students; a suggested news release that you can send out to local news media; and drafts of thank-you letters that you can send to principals and teachers after your presentation.

Online resources, including a PowerPoint Presentation and videoclip are available at www.calcpa.org/members/knowledge/outreach/Index.html.>
