Goals Our present goals are to achieve the IMA Gold Award of Excellence and to continue to increase membership in the club. We are working with our IMA representative and our faculty advisor to meet and surpass the requirements to achieve this award. We plan to set requirements to get more members involved in ICAA events. We hope that the common programming with the ASC will help to resolve scheduling conflicts and thereby increase participation. The Accounting Association provides a vehicle for motivated students to: Form relationships with professionals in the field of accounting business curriculum, and Improve the community through service activities. MISSION The Ithaca College Accounting Association is available to provide a forum of high quality programs and activities aimed at creating a bridge between the college environment and the real world that promotes professional and personal growth of members.
