PACC Organises First Virtual Forum on “Accounting Transformation”
CUHK’s Professional Accountancy (PACC) programme successfully organised its first Virtual PACC Forum on 5 May 2020, to connect with prospective students, and to provide a hands-on understanding about the opportunities and career outlook provided by the PACC programme and the accounting profession to attain their full potential.
Over 80 participants attended the event, including secondary school teachers and students, as well as PACC ambassadors. Themed “Accounting Transformation”, the forum included an introduction to the PACC Programme by Dr Edmund Wong (Programme Director, PACC); a taster class by Prof Wan Wongsunwai, illustrating on how accounting becomes the language of business; and a chatting corner. Prospective students were able to gain a university learning experience through the 30-minute taster class using a real-life case.
