Economic Update, questions about inflation, interest rates, the labour market, and where things are going economically.
SHARPER FOCUS: MAKING SENSE OF THE ECONOMICS TRENDS OF 2023
The global and national economies are a whirlwind of confusing and at times troubling events in late 2022. Geopolitics, soaring inflation, market turmoil and extreme climate events all threaten economic stability. How can industries and regions manage these changes? And what lessons can we take away about adapting to change?
The CPA Small Practitioners’ Forum was created to offer an inviting, semi-causal, and easygoing professional development weekend that provides substantial professional development value to small practitioners. All profit earned by the CPA Small Practitioners’ Forum is donated to the Alberta CPA Education Foundation, so you are helping young people in Canada get scholarships for university. All these courses are reviewed by the delegates at the Forum in Banff annually so we have a great lineup that is adjusted every year to keep things relevant to small practitioners. If you work at a public accounting firm in Canada with employees of 1-50 people, you are our target demographic and you should find this course useful.
