The Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants (PICPA), the national accredited professional organization for accountancy in the country, will be holding its 76th Annual National Convention (ANC) with the theme, “TRANSFORM: Embracing Possibilities. Realizing Potentials.” This event that will be held virtually from November 24 to 27, 2021 via a specially developed platform with microsites and other features, will be hosted by the PICPA Metro Manila Geographical Area Office, the Metro Manila Region Council and Chapters.
The PICPA Annual National Convention is one of the most significant events for Filipino CPAs. It aims to further advance their professional development through highly relevant and timely topics that will be discussed during the various plenary, break-out, and sectoral technical sessions, with topics that will include recent developments in the CPA Licensure Examination and regulations affecting the practices of professional accountants, especially controversial tax issuances. It will also include talks and discussion on Transformational and Empathic Leadership, Philippine Economic Outlook and Growth Beyond the Pandemic, CPAs as Economic Front liners, Digitalization, Cryptocurrencies, Philippine E-commerce road map, Data Analytics, Sustainability Reporting Trends, Government Budgeting, Talent Acquisition, Ethics Evolution, and Well-Being Accounting.
In addition, it also provides opportunities for CPAs to further expand their professional network through the chapter president’s meeting, fellowship activities, regional presentations and competitions, raffles, and donation drives.
The 76th ANC of PICPA will prove the ingenuity of Filipino CPAs amidst adversity, particularly with the challenges brought about by the pandemic. By utilizing innovative models of event organizing and hosting, leveraging on multi-modal communication channels, and remaining responsive to evolving needs of our members, PICPA will set the new normal on how conventions will be conducted in the coming years.
But the event is not intended to be all work and no play. The 76th ANC program will also include PICPOP, which aims to showcase the talents of the members of different PICPA Chapters, performances from selected ABS-CBN talents through ABS-CBN Global Ltd., a Mobile Legends tournament, raffles and donation drives, and much more.
