The first day of Pathways begins with our top 18 student teams tackling the preliminary round of our signature case competition. While competitors problem-solve, the remaining delegates engage in a collaborative activity designed to foster engagement and energy early in the day.
After lunch for all attendees, the spotlight shifts to our lead sponsor, who hosts an exclusive workshop tailored to showcase their values, services, and culture. Simultaneously, students participate in guided office tours—offering a behind-the-scenes look at innovative spaces, vibrant teams, and workplace perks.
The day culminates in an intimate networking session where our lead firm has exclusive access to our top talent—allowing for authentic connections, early recruitment conversations, and memorable impressions with the next generation of professionals.
Day 2 opens with a welcome breakfast and keynote from a distinguished business leader, setting the tone for a day centered on learning, exposure, and opportunity. Delegates then break off into engaging activities, followed by a panel discussion featuring representatives from various firms, offering diverse insights into careers, industry trends, and professional development.
After the panel, students attend rotational workshops led by Big Four firms, industry leaders, and non-traditional employers—providing a panoramic view of the accounting and business landscape. Lunch transitions into a dynamic networking session and career fair, where all sponsoring firms interact directly with delegates in a relaxed yet professional setting—ideal for identifying standout candidates and building brand affinity.
The event concludes with the top 3 case teams presenting their final solutions to a panel of judges, the announcement of winners, closing remarks, and the reveal of our club’s incoming president.
