12th ACCA Student Orientation Day

The ACCA Student Orientation Day was held on 28 August 2010 at the DBS Auditorium. The turn-up rate was good as the auditorium was filled with about 500 students.

At the commencement of the orientation, the HR Executive Director of KPMG LLP, Mr. Stephen Tjoa, presented the Nurture Scholarship Award 2010. During the orientation, we had a guest speaker sharing with students the benefits of being an ACCA graduate. Last but not least, the Manager of the Educational Affairs, Mr. Mitchell Tee, also gave an overview of the ACCA course milestone towards becoming a member of the ACCA. Mr Justin Ang, Representative from ICPAS Examination & Student Registry, had briefed on the overview of administrative guidelines on both ACCA and CAT qualifications and elaborated on available resources.

We, the members of the ACCA/ICPAS Student Society Committee (AISS), were also present to welcome the new students. Our Vice-President, Mr. Sarang Mandke, gave a presentation to publicise upcoming events. We emphasised that the events organised can benefit students in their professional development as well as provide a good bonding session among fellow students.

We were pleased to receive an overwhelming number of sign-ups for our upcoming events and activities groups. We will continue to do our best to make your studies an enjoyable one, so do join us for some all-rounded activities!
