Twenty-six young CPAs were recognized through the Forensic and Valuation Services (FVS) Standing Ovation program for significant contributions in their accounting specialty areas and in their communities.
The recipients’ accomplishments included assisting government agencies in a child trafficking and money laundering investigation, establishing a firm’s new office to expand its geographic footprint, and starting a scholarship program to help students in need.
All honorees hold the Certified in Financial Forensics (CFF) or Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) specialty credential, with more than a quarter holding both.
