Mentorship and Support
The Alumni Accounting Advisory Board/Council are an advisory body to the Department of Accounting at Western New England University.
The Alumni Accounting Advisory Board/Council* works with the WNE Department of Accounting to advise on current and potential new curriculum and academic programs currently at the University. It provides industry perspective to help establish new courses, potential degree programs, and potential areas of study/specialization. Further, the Board provides insight on current accounting standards being used in the “real world” to align the curriculum with industry standards and the direction of the industry.
The Board and Council also aid the University with its financial endeavors by helping to obtain financial support for its initiatives; especially and specifically with the members' contributions and continued support for the John M. Coulter Scholarship. Additionally, members mentor students in the Department of Accounting to help them obtain internships and future full-time positions.
*All members only hold an advisory role.
