The Florida Institute of CPAs has announced the third class of its annual Emerging Leaders Program.
The 27 individuals selected for this year's program represent the top young accounting professionals across Florida. The Emerging Leaders Program provides an environment where "young CPAs are able to engage in a dialogue about statewide and national issues impacting the profession, establish strong professional relationships, and be inspired to take the next step forward as leaders." Events will be held in Tallahassee, Jacksonville, Tampa, Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with local thought leaders, elected officials, nonprofit leaders and leadership experts.
The program culminates in an Emerging Leaders Summit, to be held during the winter.
