PASS Live On-line Information Session
Hi Everyone: As many of you already know, we are running a live on-line information session this Thursday night, 7:00 - 9:00pm, to inform students about (1) fast tracking - writing the CKE in May, SOA in June and UFE in Sept, 2014 and (2) the new CPA system - beginning in Sept. 2014. (Please note that there will be no in-class session, only the Thursday live on-line session).
If you have already had the information session at your university, you have already had the above session and there is no need to participate a second time. Also, if you are from Atkinson, we will be doing information sessions at the university, so there is no need to attend next week.
