The Accounting Scholars Leadership Workshop (ASLW), is an annual AICPA Foundation-sponsored event, that aims to increase the representation of people in the profession from ethnically diverse backgrounds and underrepresented populations. In addition, it focuses on encouraging and supporting students from diverse backgrounds interested in pursuing a career in accounting and finance.
Our 2023 ALSW will take place Wednesday, October 25 - Friday, October 27, 2023 at the Hilton Peachtree City Atlanta Hotel & Conference Center (2443 HWY 54 West, Peachtree City, Georgia, 30269).
ASLW exposes students to myriad opportunities within the profession and helps them envision themselves prospering and potentially growing into leadership roles. Participation in the program is enriching, and the benefits of attending are far-reaching.
ASLW is designed to broaden students’ understanding of the profession. Attendees learn strategies for career growth, networking, developing a personal brand, and creating their path to their dream careers. Panel discussions and speakers offer guidance about licensure options within the profession, including how to acquire them, and provide inspiration for pursuing a rewarding career in accounting and finance.
