GAAP
In Alaska, there will always be a strong demand for knowledgeable business professionals and accounting remains a fast route to the top echelons of the business community. It is also a great springboard to many related professions. Over the years, GAAP members have been offered placement with public accounting firms, corporate organizations, and governmental entities well before graduating. Accountants earn an excellent salary and receive additional training opportunities, other graduates accept rewarding positions with corporate or governmental organizations. Graduates who earn their CPA license enjoy even more opportunities, which can include tax planning, personal investment advising, or consulting.
