It’s the season for graduations and commencement speeches, reminders that there are concentrated periods of time in a person’s life for learning. Learning is of course a lifelong adventure and today’s post is dedicated to sharing with you a few of my favorite resources for professional accounting excellence, in order of their importance and influence on me. It’s not an exhaustive list by any means, but I hope you find something that peaks your interest and helps you learn something new.
