From the President
For the last 35 years, the Georgia Affiliate of the American Woman’s Society of CPAs has supported and enhanced the lives and careers of Georgia women in the accounting profession. AWS provides top quality, affordable CPE; we offer professional development opportunities; we foster networking and resource-sharing among members; we offer peer-to-peer mentoring; we are friends.
I am excited to begin our 2017-2018 season with such a strong, supportive, and smart group of women. Our profession is evolving quickly; technology is rapidly changing the way we work and interact. Beyond the profession, society itself is in a daily tug-of-war. As we find time and time again, answers to our questions and challenges will best be explored together. We at AWS have big goals on the horizon; we warmly welcome you to be a part of what’s to come. I encourage you to click around, explore our group, and join us for upcoming events – we are here for you!
