On February 9 and 10, 2023, the Gatineau office hosted the CPA for a Day activity.
The Comité CPA de l’UQO reached out to our Gatineau Office in hopes of getting the day planned for a few of their students. After a few days of planning, the day was set, and four students were able to live the experience of spending a day in an accounting firm.
Upon arriving, the students had a quick meet-n-greet with the Gatineau team, followed by a tour of the office. Afterwards, the students set off to learn about what it takes to work as an accountant.
Three separate stations were prepared for the students – bookkeeping, insurance & tax compliance, and management. At each station, a Welch team member was there to explain the job and show what their daily duties look like.
The students had a wonderful time, telling us that they enjoyed the time spent with us and being able to make connections between what they learn in school and the reality of being a CPA in an accounting firm.
Thank you to the Comité étudiant CPA de l’UQO for organizing this invaluable activity – we can’t wait for the next one!
