In a recent episode of the "IssuesWatch" podcast, three college accounting educators and CPAs discussed various topics relevant to accounting education. The discussion included enrollment trends, curriculum changes, bridging the gap between academia and the workforce, and alternative pathways to becoming a CPA.
The episode was released on Tuesday and hosted by Don Meyer, chief marketing officer for the New Jersey Society of Certified Professional Accountants (NJCPA). Meyer's guests were Steven J. Budryk, CPA, MS, manager at Traphagen CPAs & Wealth Advisors and adjunct professor at Ramapo College of New Jersey; Sarah L. O’Rourke, CPA, assistant professor at Rutgers Business School-New Brunswick; and Barry Palatnik, CPA, assistant professor at Stockton University.
The "IssuesWatch" podcast is a weekly program from the NJCPA that addresses current business and economic issues affecting New Jersey CPAs and the broader business community. Recent episodes have covered topics such as election aftermath's impact on tax policies, protecting against two-factor authentication fraud, and adapting accounting firm models.
