With the CPE reporting period winding up on June 30, 2009, the MACPA wants to help you get the education you need, when you need it. With a host of new courses designed specifically for our Business and Industry members, along with the return of many of our most widely attended events, you’ll find many quality programs to meet your educational needs as the reporting period comes to an end.

For CPAs in business and industry, with different needs from our member in public accounting, the MACPA offers a new course roster designed for you. Quick four-hour programs will help save you time while providing education on corporate ethics, International Financial Reporting Standards, forensic accounting, new FASB Codification, and more skills. To see the complete listing of courses for CPAs in business and industry visit this link on the MACPA website.

Changes have been made in Washington that will affect CPAs all across the country. With the passing of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 there will be substantial changes and relief to both businesses and individuals. To assist you in understanding the changes in business and individual tax breaks, energy tax incentives and other credits, the MACPA has developed multiple new programs between now and the end of the reporting period. View the complete listing of courses here.

Along with new courses, you will see the return of our most popular conferences including the Healthcare Conference and Industry Professionals Conference. This year’s Healthcare Conference will delve into changes affecting CPAs working in this market segment, given the dramatic reformation of the Healthcare system being driven by the new President. This is a great opportunity for all CPAs to prepare themselves and their clients for what lies ahead in the Healthcare industry.

The return of the Industry Professionals Conference will focus on effectively navigating Michigan’s economic decline and improving the financial condition of your organization. Crain’s Detroit Business 2008 CFO of the Year Award winner Andrew Gutman, CFO for the Farbman Group, will share how he saved millions of dollars for his firm’s real estate clients, and how effective financial management is the key to success for every organization.
