Do you know what  these initials stand for ?  

 

These are nationally recognized accounting and tax credentials.   Which ones do you hold?  If you don’t have these credentials behind your name, then you are missing out on business, professional and educational opportunities.

The next test date is December 9th, 2005.  Will you be ready to sit for the exam?

We are trying to put together a study group to help you get ready to take the exam in December.  If you are interested, please contact Susan Parker, 602-957-6832 or
