Passing the CPA Exam: One CPA’s Journey
As many of you know, the journey to becoming a CPA is like no other—interesting, challenging, stressful, but nonetheless so rewarding in the end. Such was the journey of Shakor Jukes, CPA. An AICPA Accounting Scholars Leadership Workshop (ASLW) alumnus and currently an Audit Associate at RSM US LLP, Shakor credits his success to family, faculty, ASLW and his pure determination to succeed.
In the video below, Shakor shares his amazing story, just in time to inspire other minority students to apply for this year’s ASLW before the March 15 deadline.
We hope you’ll share this inspiring video and encourage the minority accounting students you know to apply for the 23rd Annual AICPA Accounting Scholars Leadership Workshop, which will be held May 17-19, 2017 in Houston, TX.
