New opportunities for our profession

The demand for the services of our profession has never been stronger. In Ireland and across the world, the marketplaces in which we operate are ever changing, bringing opportunities and challenges in the short and longer term.
 
As an Institute, we are always looking ahead to ensure our qualification, resources, standards and services continue to be world class and fit for purpose in an ever-changing environment and a new world of work. By doing this, we can continue to be an attractive career option for talented, mobile recruits, and a future ready, dynamic profession equipped to support businesses and economies.  
 
We recently started discussions with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland to explore areas for cooperation or innovation.  As the two all-island accountancy bodies headquartered in Ireland, it makes sense to engage in this way on behalf of the profession and our members, students, and firms.
 
Any potential opportunities identified by these discussions will be communicated to you in the coming weeks.
