Our mission at the North Dakota CPA Society is to inspire, empower, and support our members through promotion, advocacy, connections, and knowledge. We are dedicated to providing valuable resources and opportunities for professional development and networking within the accounting community.

The early years of the Society were marked by a strong commitment to upholding the highest standards of professionalism and ethics within the accounting profession. The founding members recognized the importance of creating a unified voice for CPAs across the state and worked diligently to establish a platform for collaboration and growth.

The Board of Accounting played a pivotal role in shaping the direction of the Society during its formative years. Their dedication to overseeing licensing requirements and maintaining rigorous standards for CPA certification laid the groundwork for ensuring that members of the Society would be held to a high level of expertise and integrity.

Throughout its history, the North Dakota CPA Society has remained steadfast in its commitment to serving as a trusted resource for CPAs at all stages of their careers.
