On the 4th of November 2008, the CPA Student Charter organised a company trip to one of the Big 4 Accounting Firms in the world, KPMG at their new headquarters in Bandar Utama.
The objectives of this trip are to to expose the working culture in KPMG as it is one of the big four accounting firm. This will allow students to understand and prepare themselves to the working environment. Besides this will also serve as a good starting point for their future employment.
Furthermore, this company trip also enable students to understand more about the operation, structure and policy of the company. This will enable students to fully understand the fundamental knowledge of the company. This will act as a good requirement when any one of the students applies for a career in KPMG as he/she will have knowledge about the insight of the company.

In conclusion, the CPA Student Charter members gained valuable insight to the culture and experience of working in a an international accounting firm. Although this trip was organised by our Treasurer, Pretib, other members also learned and gained new experience and know-how of organizing a company trip. This will add their experience and teach them the formal procedure when engaging with the corporate people.
