A true advocacy program thrives on the support of its members. Thank you, Guy, for your outstanding commitment to the @FICPA and service to advancing our advocacy efforts! 👏 🏆
Thank you to @FloridaDBPR Secretary @melaniesgriffin for attending last night's Newly Certified Ceremony, serving as the keynote speaker at #FICPAMEGA's Women's Leadership Summit, being a proud supporter of the @FICPA and protecting the integrity of licensure in Florida!
For the last 20 years, I've been fortunate to call @JimmyPatronis a friend. This morning, as President & CEO of the @FICPA, it was my honor to introduce Florida's CFO at #FICPAMEGA. Thank you, CFO Patronis, for managing the business affairs of the state of Florida!

It was a pleasure speaking to @FICPA this morning. Florida is open for business, and I want to thank Florida CPA’s for all you do behind the scenes to help small businesses grow and thrive throughout our state. #FICPAMEGA
I could not be more proud of the Darshani Singh and all our FICPA Scholarship Foundation recipients. That's why I just pledged $5,000 for the Foundation! Will you join me in our shared effort to secure the future of the CPA profession? Make a donation: bit.ly/4ekf4mj
Already this morning, we've raised more than $16,000 in contributions to the Scholarship Foundation. Will you help us exceed our goal of $20,000? Click here to make your donation now online: bit.ly/4ekf4mj
Each year at #FICPAMEGA, the Yellow Ribbon Dinner honors the volunteer leaders who have served with distinction. Our FICPA Chairs have devoted themselves to advancing this organization and our profession and we could not be more grateful.
Thank you, Sen. @JoeGruters, for your continued leadership and for making sure #CPAsCount in Tallahassee. #FICPAMEGA
The FICPA is proud to honor Sen. @JoeGruters with our 2024 Legislative Champion Award. Sen. Gruters played a leading role during this spring's Legislative Session, securing retired status for #CPAs and protecting the profession from legislation that would have devalued licensure.
From last night: Can’t think of a better way to kick off #FICPAMEGA than dinner with our favorite Florida Senator - @JoeGruters - one of the fiercest supporters of the #CPA profession in the state. Thank you for your unwavering support Senator!
And from this morning: We were honored on Tuesday with a special visit from Sen. Ed Hooper! Sen. Hooper is a longtime ally of the #CPA profession and friend of the @FICPA. We thank him for his leadership in Tallahassee and for making his way to #FICPAMEGA!
Thank you to @CPAcom's Vice President of Strategy and Innovation, Kacee Johnson, for kicking off #FICPAMEGA with her presentation on generative #AI! This was the perfect way to start a loaded three-day schedule of the most cutting-edge CPE in Florida!

The FICPA mourns the loss of James R. Kaufman. Jim was one of the true titans of South Florida accounting, and his leadership lives on both in the firm and the profession at large. We extend our condolences to his family and the entire Kaufman Rossin team. kaufmanrossin.com/blog/a-tri…
Today's Bridge to CPA and 5-Point Pipeline Promise announcements show once again how the @FICPA is taking a leading role in strengthening the pipeline and protecting the integrity of licensure, Together, we can close the talent gap and open the door to the future of accounting!
I am ecstatic to officially unveil Bridge to CPA and grateful to both the firms below and @NSUFlorida. CPA candidates can obtain their fifth year of education and take career-relevant courses, approved for licensure in Florida, without having to worry about tuition costs!
The FICPA,
@NSUFlorida, @BPBCPA, Kaufman Rossin and
@PAAST_CPAs are proud to introduce Bridge to CPA, a new partnership that will assist students in completing their fifth-year requirements with NO TUITION COSTS. Read more: bit.ly/3UwwcMN
Well said @Paul_Renner. Cyndi has been a close friend to the FICPA and as a CPA is one of our own. I am proud of her service in the Florida House of Representatives, and will miss her energy and enthusiasm.
As @FICPA's busy week in Tallahassee winds down, I owe one more shout out to our partners at The Accountants' Coalition. Our TAC group was fortunate enough to spend time on Wednesday with both Florida House Speaker @Paul_Renner and Senate President @Kathleen4SWFL.
Thank you, as always, to Roddy Melendez, Javi Borges, Kim Griffin-Hunter, Chris Oatis, Stephen Nesi, James Cox, Jason Harrell, Jennifer Green and Tim Parson! @LibertyPartners
Thank YOU for taking the time @JimmyPatronis. We're grateful for your support at the state level, and we absolutely agree about that "best CPAs in the country" designation! #CPAsCount @FICPA
Great visit with @FICPAShelly and other members of @FICPA today! Thank you all for the work you do to ensure that Florida has the best CPAs in the country! #FlaPol
