CONVERGENCE 2013 is the Dallas CPA Society’s 8-hour Continuing Professional Education Day which will be held at the Omni Hotel Dallas on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, and is expected to attract over 1,500 participants.

Join us for 8 hours of CPE credit featuring 43 sessions of important topics and nationally-noted speakers on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, at the Omni Dallas Hotel located at 555 S. Lamar St., Dallas, TX 75202.

This year’s keynote speaker for the event luncheon is Billy M. Atkinson. Many of you will remember Billy as the ebullient introducer of David Walker, our 2011 keynote presenter. Mr. Atkinson, now retired from practice after 39 years with PricewaterhouseCoopers, has served in a variety of leadership positions with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the Texas Society of Certified Public Accountants (TSCPA), the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (TSBPA) and the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA). Last fall, he was named Chairman of the newly-created Private Company Council, an organization set up to work with the Financial Accounting Standards Board to determine whether and when to modify US GAAP for private companies. It replaces the Private Company Financial Reporting Committee. Mr. Atkinson will be speaking on this new group and its initiatives, as well as other timely topics related to the FASB.

The day includes many special benefits to members, including a resume critique. If your resume needs to be updated, bring a hard copy to the DCPAS table and an expert in the field will review it and provide constructive feedback.

Special thanks and recognition to the companies who have signed on to sponsor CONVERGENCE 2013.
