Fast Pace to the Case (FPC) is a DeGroote Accounting Association student-led initiative in which students from Ontario universities are invited to compete in teams of four in a high-level Accounting case.
Attracting the brightest accounting students from across the province, FPC provides delegates the opportunity to prepare and present a team-based CPA Common Final Examination (CFE) style accounting case, participate in interactive workshops, and network with industry professionals.
To heat up the competition, the teams will be competing for a grand prize of $4,000. Cash prizes will also be awarded to the second, third place teams in the amount of $2000 and $1000 respectively. In addition, one male and one female delegate will receive an award for their outstanding overall performance during the day.
