Upcoming events to take note of

Hello fellow accountants-to-be;

Hope everything is settled down for your new semester. But first up here are a few updates from our head of department of Sunway. Do take note and mark your calendars 'cause these are a few interesting events.

The Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) will be having a talk held on 29th September 2010 from 12pm to 1pm. It will be a talk on how our ACCA members can be registered as a chartered accountant and how they can update themselves with the latest accounting standards and trends.

We will be having a Career Day on 30th September 2010 from 10am to 4pm. This event will most likely to have the Big Four companies (i.e. KPMG, PWC, Deloitte, E&Y) to have a booth respectively. Students who are keen to join them on their internship programme or who are graduating soon can come for an interview on that day.

These are the two latest events coming up. Till then, GOOD LUCK for your exam results which will be released on 23rd August 2010. Have a nice week ahead.
