Testimonials

“Our CPABC in-house professional development session was tailored and focused on topics pertinent to BC Ferries. As well as being a cost effective way to deliver training to a large group, it provided an opportunity for us to discuss specific issues applicable to BC Ferries with guidance from a knowledgeable instructor. The ability to easily create a personalized PD session was very appreciated!”

“With the growing number of employees in our finance department who require professional development, we decided to look at CPABC’s in-house seminar offerings to align training and development for all our team members. This gave us an opportunity to not only provide training for those who require PD points but also for the rest of team.  Our first session was received very well by our team and we will definitely consider this again for the future.”

“The IFRS Review of the Standards course was seamlessly organized and the instructor was both well prepared for the session and had done a considerable amount of thinking in advance to understand our current work to better address emerging issues and questions. The pace, dynamics of the course delivery, specialized content, and expertise of the instructor were all on point.”

“In-house presentation of PD Program course material provided us with: well prepared material; customization to emphasize areas of particular interest; very knowledgeable instructors; and an economic delivery model that enabled us to include more staff in the learning experience.”

“With the convenience of in-house PD, we’re able to have more of the accounting team attend PD, by including team members that wouldn’t normally attend if the sessions were out of town. Our team members like the in-house PD sessions because they feel comfortable asking questions and discussing issues specific to our clients. I think we get more out of the PD because of the discussions that result from those questions. It’s also more convenient to have the course under our roof and to not have to go elsewhere for it. We definitely get more value out of in-house PD courses.”

“One of Avisar’s objectives is to provide a work environment that is conducive to both personal and professional growth. Greg Campeau was the key person for Avisar’s two-day CPABC in-house seminar “Leading from Anywhere in the Organization.” He executed on all the deliverables we worked on together to ensure a well-rounded interactive workshop to our leadership group and entire team. Of particular value to us was that the material resonated with us – leadership is everyone’s job – serving people is the highest form of performance.”
