My edge project consists of learning how to effectively lead a large club of students who have one common goal: networking with local, regional, and national CPA firms in order to secure employment upon graduation. The majority of the project will be to conduct trainings and events in such a way that an increased percentage of students who are members of PAC receive internship and full-time job offers from these firms. This will be accomplished by holding events where individuals are trained in how to network and follow up with professionals they come in contact with. Increased level of participation in PAC will also be a target objective as more CPA firms express interest in recruiting accounting students from SUU. The importance of marketing oneself and providing value will also be covered.
