The Society plays a key role in the training and development of chartered accountants, offering excellent technical and soft skills courses.

We are pleased to have strong links with other professional organisations in the area. We also act as a link between the ICAEW in Moorgate Place and members in the district. We are always keen to hear from members who wish to become more involved with our work.

Branch & Town Group meetings provide members locally with opportunities for networking and cost effective CPD, as well as a valuable forum for discussion. While predominantly practice based in their active membership most groups also aim to provide some events of specific interest to members in business.
