Many professional licenses and certifications require Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credit hours to be completed every year - and I'm excited to have completed my requirements before year end! 👇 🏫 One of my favorite reasons for completing CPE is that the requirements are a forcing mechanism and gives us the opportunity to continuously learn and grow. 👨🎓 During 2024 I was excited to see that >40% of my CPE credits were allocated to Personal Development and a majority of the balance was Career, Ethics, People Management related. 👏 Many thanks to my favorite personal development educator Jina Etienne, CPA, CGMA, CDE®, and the following hosting organizations: Institute of Management Accountants (IMA), CPAacademy.org, PwC, ADP, and Riveron. ❓ How are you continuing to grow personally and professionally? ⁉ #ContinuouslyLearning #Finance #Insights
