What's on offer
About us
SDSCA was originally for Chartered Accountants practising within twenty miles of Sheffield Town Hall, a definition which includes Chesterfield, Barnsley and Rotherham. Later, boundary lines were re-organised so that Doncaster, Worksop and Retford were also included. Our members come from accountancy practices small and large and from a range of business, public sector and Third Sector interests. The district society is deeply engaged in the development of the local economy and regards the promotion of the profession - especially among students - as a crucial part of its work.
CPD training
Courses in Audit and Assurance, Financial Reporting, Charity, Legal, Tax, Tech, etc, offered both as live sessions and on-demand recordings.
