Curriculum design by BLI and AICPA using Top 5 Competencies

for future from CPA Horizons research and job levels from the BLI “Bounce” Model. Leadership

and Communications were combined and the 5th category expanded to include practice

specialties for firms and functional areas for corporate.

Examples would include:

Corporate Accounting, FP&A, divisional reporting, shared

services, etc. CPA Firms would have audit, tax,

industry specialties.

These technical areas would have specific curriculums designed to

meet their specific technical competency needs.

Your Competitive Advantage “It is hard to plan for the long-term future when you don’t know what is going to happen five minutes from now. Today, a competitive edge based solely on material advantage is thin and temporary; the edge quickly becomes the margin. The ability to define the edge, and the ultimate competitive advantage, is found in the smarts, heart and ingenuity of your people. That’s your powerhouse. Tap that, train it, focus it and mobilize it; now you’ve engaged a network and inspired a sustainable shift.
