Ernst & Young Talked about Public Accountant Firm in UPH Accounting Workshop

David Sungkoro Presented his Explanation to the Participants 

On Friday, January 20, 2017, UPH Career Center held a workshop for the Accounting students of UPH. The workshop was held at UPH Karawaci Tangerang, with key speakers from Ernst & Young (EY), to  talk about accountant as a profession as well as, how is it like working inside a Public Accountant Firm (PAF).

For the second year, EY held a workshop for UPH to support students who will graduate and enter the real professional world, especially in a career such as PAF in EY.

?Today we are here to give you more than just a general description about EY, but we want to talk about a profession, because I?m sure that most of the 2^nd and 3^rd semester student still have a very rough picture on what kind of profession would they want to do in the future. Thus, today we?re going to talk about Public Accountant Firm (PAF),? said David Sungkoro, EY Assurance Partner.

?With this workshop, we hope that UPH students can have a better understanding about public accountant and surely, for them to know EY Company as a PAF. Moreover, knowing that UPH is rather new, compared to other universities such as UI and others, we want to look for UPH graduates. It?s mainly because we know that UPH graduates have rather vast and global horizon, which is needed as in PAF,? David stated.

Approximately 149 students of Accounting UPH were present and all of them were very enthusiastic about the workshop with EY. This was seen by the variety of questions about PAF and the important steps to be a public accountant, career path in EY and many more. (mt)
