In this week's discussion, you will find illustrative examples of these key principles to share and discuss with your peers.

First, review the terms and definitions identified in the "Principles of Professional Conduct" section of the preamble to the AICPA Professional Code of Conduct.

Certification May Be Needed in Your Career as a Finance Major

OVERVIEW


In co-operation with the instructor, you will conduct research to find out what kinds of professional certification may be needed in your career.

You should do this research as a team, though, with instructor approval, you may work individually. Your team must be made up with other students from your college only (business, engineering, law, or information technology). Teams should be no more than five students. Ideally, you should work with students who have the same major and specialization as you.

1. Is there a professional certification that will be required for your career?
