CEO Corner

Dear Hannah,

A new membership year is here! I hope that you’ll take this time to reinvest in you by renewing your membership with us. Your dues notice was emailed to you, but you can renew right now by clicking here

New this year, as a perk of your 2021/2022 membership, you will get up to 20 hours of FREE learning through CPE PLUS! This brand-new program gives new and renewing members access to a select group of free webinars, just for being a member. The webinars are spread throughout our membership year (May 1, 2021 – April 30, 2022), so the earlier you renew, the more credits you can earn on us! You can learn more about CPE PLUS here and make sure to check back often as new webinars are added. 

We always hear from members that the peer networking and industry insight they gain in our 20+ committees and roundtables is what they value the most. These are exclusive benefits of your membership – and great ways to gain leadership experience – so make sure to take advantage in the year ahead! Also, in the spirit of National Volunteer Week, I’d like to thank our Board of Directors, Educational Foundation Board of Directors, firm ambassadors, committee chairs and members, volunteer speakers, peer reviewers and media opportunity volunteers for their service. We couldn’t do what we do without you!

Lastly, if you have questions about your membership or renewing, please contact Amanda Curtis at acurtis@mscpaonline.org or 617.303.2424. We are offering a payment plan for dues to be made in monthly installments to ease the financial burden members may be facing right now.
 
I look forward to prospering together in the year ahead!
 
Have a great weekend!

MSCPA President/CEO
