About Beyond Accounting Series
Our first in person event was on 30th April 2019 in New York, near Grand Central. This was followed by a virtual conference on 19th November 2020, when we also rebranded from the Association of Chartered Accountants in the US (ACAUS) to Chartered Accountants Worldwide USA. In 2021 we held 6 mini-conferences partnering with our funding home institutes. In 2022 we again partnered with our Home Institutes, as well as with Fordham University and other Guest speakers to put on another series of events. We restarted our in-person conference in 2023 and ran this again in 2024 with Fordham University in New York. We have also continued with online offerings.
Highlights from the Past Beyond Accounting Events
AI is converging with new energy technologies at an extraordinary speed. For chartered accountants, the opportunity is not simply to automate existing work, but to strengthen judgment, reshape skills, and help organizations navigate a less predictable world.
On June 10th 2026 Chartered Accountants Worldwide Network USA, the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA), and Fordham University brought finance leaders together in New York to explore how the CFO role is changing in practice.
The second session is a discussion with a mix of CFO’s and Practice-based leaders about how AI is impacting them and how they expect it to impact their companies, clients, and customers.

Shane M. Rogers, FCA, MBA draws on 25 years of global financial services experience to argue that the qualities that made great rock stars, resilience, honesty, and courage, are exactly what separates a good internal auditor from a truly impactful one. Skills get you through the door. Competencies get you to the top.
