WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS
It's Not What You Say That Is Heard... It's Your Body Language!
People pay attention to 7% of what you say, 38% of how you say it (tone) and 55% of your body language. This presentation will focus on the secret language of success - body language. The goal is to improve your communication skills. The presentation will help you interact with prospective employers, co-workers, and other professionals. It can improve your communication skills with friends, family and anyone you encounter. This presentation will make you aware of the silent signals you are giving and receiving as you interact with people. Do you know and understand the signals you are transmitting?
If I Only Knew Back Then... Advice from Young CPAs

Many students struggle with the decision about whether to enter public accounting, public service or private industry. A panel of experienced professionals who have each followed a distinct career path share their experiences with students. This is the discussion for students wondering, "Can a CPA can be useful in the FBI?" or "How do I become a partner in a large firm?”
