ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Increasing the number of Native American certified public accountants is the latest goal for the American Indian Graduate Center and its Investing in Native CPAs Project.
The Albuquerque-based organization is investing $2 million in scholarships that would help 150 Native scholars get to the goal of being a CPA.
“The Investing in Native CPAs initiative addresses an opportunity gap in the accounting and finance fields,” said Angelique Albert (Confederated Salish & Kootenai Tribes), AIGC executive director. “Data from the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants (AICPA) indicates Native professionals represent only 0.3% of individuals holding both a bachelor and master’s degree in accounting – the population most likely to attain a CPA.”
The Center for Native Scholarship aims to produce more Native CPAs by 2030Â
ALBUQUERQUE, NM â American Indian Graduate Center has created the Investing in Native CPAs Program, a $2M scholarship initiative that will fund 150 Native scholars pursuing accounting and finance degrees with the goal of increasing Native Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) within the next 10 years.Â
