Internship Program

“I learned a lot about what working in a firm is like, and I also gained a lot of experience and knowledge navigating different accounting software and programs. Most importantly though, I learned how to turn my book knowledge from class into practical knowledge that I can use going forward in my career.”
-2023 Busy Season Intern
