Former AICPA chair named IFAC president

来源: 高顿网校 2014-11-11
  高顿网校USCPA责任小编在此与广大USCPA会员及考生分享一则喜讯,前任AICPA主席Olivia Kirtley被任命为IFAC主席。这一消息足够体现了美国注册会计师在国际会计师协会的主导性及权威性,相信各位会员与考生也都会为之振奋!
  Olivia Kirtley, CPA, CGMA, a member of the AICPA’s governing council and former chair of the AICPA board of directors, has been elected to a two-year term as president of the board of the International Federation of Accountants, a global organization dedicated to strengthening the accounting profession.
  IFAC announced the election of Kirtley, a business consultant on strategic and corporate governance issues, on Friday. She becomes the first female president of IFAC, as well as the first from business and industry rather than public accounting. She succeeds Warren Allen, who served two years each as IFAC’s president and deputy president.
  “This is an exciting time for IFAC, with challenges and opportunities for the profession at every level,” Kirtley said in a statement. “As president, I look forward to engaging with member bodies and our many stakeholders as we seek ways to advance the impact and value of our profession, and in serving the public interest.”
  Kirtley became a member of the IFAC board in 2007, following a stint on the independent IFAC Task Force on Rebuilding Public Confidence in Financial Reporting from 2002 to 2003. In 2012, she was named deputy president of the IFAC board. Rachel Grimes, former president of the board of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia, replaces Kirtley as IFAC’s deputy president.
  Kirtley serves on boards of directors of three companies: U.S. Bancorp, Papa John’s International, and ResCare. Previously, she was vice president of finance and CFO of Vermont American Corp. She was named by the National Association of Corporate Directors as one of the top corporate directors and governance professionals in the United States.
  “Olivia has brought to IFAC the same qualities that made her tenure as AICPA chair so successful,” Barry Melancon, CPA, CGMA, president and CEO of the AICPA, said in a statement. “Her experience in corporate finance and management accounting, extensive public board leadership, and earlier work in public practice combine for proven leadership in today’s complex global business environment. I applaud her election.”
  In 1998, Kirtley became the first woman elected to chair the AICPA board of directors. From 2000 to 2003, she headed the AICPA Board of Examiners, which oversees the content and structure of the Uniform CPA Examination. During her tenure, the Board of Examiners converted the CPA exam from a pencil-and-paper format to a digital format. In 2003, the AICPA awarded her the Gold Medal for exemplary leadership and service to the accountancy profession.
  IFAC has more than 175 members and associates in 130 countries and jurisdictions, representing about 2.5 million accountants in public practice, education, government service, industry, and commerce. IFAC offers accountants guidance on ethics, auditing and assurance, education, and public-sector accounting.

USCPA备考 热门问题解答
美国注会考试考多少分及格?

uscpa一共有四门科目,每门考试的满分为99分,75分及格,但是这个75不是75%的正确率,不能被理解为百分比。

uscpa一共几门几年考完?

uscpa总共考4门,一般单科成绩的有效期为18个月,大家需要在这个有效期的时间内,通过剩余的三门科目,否则第一门通过的考试成绩就作废,需要重考。因此,uscpa考试周期最长为18个月。

uscpa一年能考几次?

NASBA和AICPA开启了连续测试期后,大家可以不受限制的全年参加uscpa考试。在uscpa的考试成绩公布后,如果大家发现自己没有通过考试,能够马上申请并参加该门科目考试,也不用再等待下一个考季才能申请重考。

uscpa的含金量如何?

uscpa是美国正式的注册会计师国家资格,在美国拥有审计签字权,作为美国财经领域的三大黄金证书之一,在国内外都有着很好的知名度。很多外企招聘财务经理或财务总监岗位,都将持有uscpa证书作为优先录用条件。
