Description of Organization
|
The National Association of Black Accountants, Inc. (NABA), a 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization, is one of the premier professional associations
in the nation. NABA has the unique opportunity of representing the
interests of more than 100,000 people of color in furthering their
educational, professional, and career aspirations in the related
business fields of accounting, consulting, finance and information
technology.
The motto of NABA, Lifting As We Climb, is exemplified best in our
mission, which addresses the professional needs of our members while
developing and inspiring future leaders who will shape tomorrow's
accounting and finance professions. In addition, NABA's Center for
Advancement of Minority Accountants (CAMA) has established a series of
career development programs that serve the membership at the national,
regional and local levels. CAMA has also been instrumental in
encouraging the next generation of young professionals to consider other
opportunities in business. |
